Not just the maximum bounce count. Unsurprisingly, I also did a rather
shallow job in this part of the bullet code back in 2020…

Reason: Self-modifying. -.- And saving SI and DI on the stack way too
late.
Luckily, it's mostly identical to TH04's version I decompiled earlier,
only (thankfully) combining regular and special bullets into one
function, and integrating TH05-specific improvements.

Too bad that it would have made no sense to call them "goofy bullets".
"Regular" is also a better name than "normal" (which is a difficulty!).

We're going to need some name for the longer, boss-specific danmaku
animations. Turns out that these are exactly called "patterns" in
Sparen's glossary:

So what we called a "pattern" is actually called a "group". Whoops!

Because pretty much all of TH05's bullet spawn code is micro-optimized
and undecompilable ASM, we'll unfortunately have to keep those ASM
versions around forever 😕
Well, the TH05 ones at least.
