Last one! Done with the SHARED segment for the forseeable future! 🎉
Sure, not the best C++ code either, but still by far the sanest
implementation of this function in any of the 4 games.

Segment alignment issues once again… but that completes the SHARED
segments of all TH03 and TH05 binaries, for now!

4 games, 4 different versions of this function. Interestingly,
moving the game-specific differences to inline functions makes it
obvious that this function was only intended for BGM, not sound
effects.

Segment alignment forces us to do all of those at once… but now, we've
not only caught up with the segment split point in TH04's OP.EXE and
MAINE.EXE, but also decompiled all instances of DEFCONV functions!

Whoops, turns out that the build has been broken on TASM32 version 5.3
(the one in the DevKit) ever since 7897bf1. In contrast to version 5.0
(which I use for my development), 5.3 actually defines 32-bit segments
if you specify a .386 CPU before using .MODEL.
That might have been the reason for the .286 workaround all along?
Turns out there's the USE16 modifier, which makes this much more
explicit than switching CPUs.
Eh, REP MOVSD is used too inconsistently across the games to justify
replacing these macros with an `inline` function. Still can use a
custom one here to make the register usage a bit more explicit, though.

Not that it really fits there either, but I've been trying to keep the
th0?/ directories free from any actual code. They should only contain
the distinct translation units within the original three .EXE binaries,
`#include`ing files from subdirectories, along with maybe game-specific
`#pragma`s, but contain no code on their own. Port authors would simply
ignore those, and link everything from the subdirectories into one
binary. That approach has seemed to make the most sense for all of this
so far.

Reason: Manual "tail call optimization" of input_reset_sense(), with
execution falling through to input_sense() immediately below.
Part of P0133, funded by [Anonymous].
Undecompilable again. The loading functions have these *_noalpha()
variants that simply set a global variable and fall through to the
regular functions, while cdg_free() has its first `PUSH DI` instruction
after the first expression we'd be decompiling. cdg_free_all() *could*
be decompiled… but would also require _FLAGS trickery, and it's simply
not worth starting a translation unit for one such small function.
Part of P0127, funded by [Anonymous].
Actually fairly average, as far as unreasonable decompilations are
concerned. No `goto`, at least! Another place that would benefit from
EGC raster op documentation, though.
Also, got one more padding byte in TH05's MAINE.EXE correct. 🙂

There's the better name, in ALLCAPS for improved grepping. TH01 is also
going to need a pseudo-binary to bundle translation units that appear
in more than one .EXE, and since "segment 2" would be wrong for that
game, it makes more sense to have one consistent name for these
pseudo-binaries in all games.

Yup, no trick there. If the selection moves to the other character, the
original background behind the raised top and left edges has to be
blitted back to VRAM, which means that it also has to be stored
somewhere. TH04 backs up exactly the two 256×8 and 8×244 strips behind
Reimu and Marisa, requiring 2 KB of heap memory, whereas TH05 simply
gave up, and backs up the entire 640×400 screen, totalling 128 KB.

And get rid of the constraining FX() macro, with its spacing parameter
that we haven't even seen used so far.

Why does this function also have to load sprites for the viewing mode
of the high score menu?! Oh well, ridiculous functions deserve
ridiculous names…

Wow, this is the first time we're about to call any of these from C
land in ≥TH03? Found no built-in way to just uppercase an identifier
in TASM, so apparently we have to spell out the names in both lower-
and uppercase.
So, let's go back to regular, non-macro PUBLIC / PROC / ENDP code
wherever we can – for all functions introduced in ≥TH03, and for
everything that takes no parameters. It's simply not worth the
trouble.

About time I finally developed this piece of tech. Towards TH05, this
segment got more and more undecompilable ASM functions mixed inbetween
C ones. Which means that pretty much all of the current ASM land
`#include`s in that segment will have to become translation units. And
we *really* don't want an additional layer of numbered, per-binary
translation units that just `#include` maybe one or two functions.
Also yeah, no _TEXT suffix, to drive home the point that this is a
"library" segment, and not really "owned" by any one file.

No need to make the function names more complicated if we already
expressed the one subtle format difference between TH03 and TH04/TH05
in the plane layout enum.

ZUN might have gotten the impression that the EGC can *only* work with
multiples of 16 pixels per load or store? Which might explain why…

Also something that any future ReC project should be doing right at the
start. Finally, it made sense to do it here as well, because…

And with all possible .COM executables decompiled, this set of changes
reaches an acceptable scope, allowing us to *finally*…

The supposedly low-hanging fruit that almost every outside contributor
wanted to grab a lot earlier, but (of course) always just for a single
game… Comprehensively covering all of them has only started to make
sense recently 😛
Also, yes, the variable with the uppercase .CFG filename has itself a
lowercase name and vice versa…

Oh wow, caff4fe introduced wrong bytes into RES_KSO.COM by confusing
[cfg_bombs] with [credit_lives] -.- Which I didn't find out back then
because all the RES_*.COM binaries still had some different instruction
encodings anyway and I just didn't care enough to base my diff of those
files on the wrong encoding versions to notice the bug…
Whoops.
