`switch` statements compiling to binary searches if the range of values
is nasty enough? That's so cool. Apart from a few places in TH02,
this is the only place in PC-98 Touhou to show off that Turbo C++
optimization.
That code's still unexpectedly janky for what you'd expect from the 4th
game in the series, though.

motion_t is also used for certain animations in MAINE.EXE, so not all
instances refer to entities in playfield space. Explicitly specifying
the latter now allows us to gain…

Palette hacks not included yet. Yup, that's how all phases can use
hardware color #0 as their background color.

After ternary expressions straight out of Jigoku in 57be510, we now got
pointer arithmetic straight out of Jigoku… with, unsurprisingly, two
ZUN bugs.

Which does have the practical effect of communicating more information
via IntelliSense during regular development!

We've been establishing `screen` as meaning "a coordinate rooted at the
top-left corner of the display", whereas most of the Subpixels in >TH01
are rooted at the top-left of the playfield.

With all the memmove()-style shifting of individual lines, there's
probably a point to reserving 20 lines per set, but only ever rendering
4 of them. We'll see once I get to decompile all of these functions.

Also great news for those people who want to remove any and all C++ in
their mods, because this forces us to spell out subpixel literals as
actual floats, every time. And with that, you're back to being able to
simply search-replace for all the instances you'll have to change.
