Whew, time to look at every `int` variable we ever declared! The best
moment to do this would have been a year ago, but well, better late
than never. No need to communicate that in comments anymore.
These shouldn't be used for widths, heights, or sprite-space
coordinates. Maybe we'll cover that another time, this commit is
already large enough.

I tried `brge` for the latter, but that had *the* most horrible
ergonomics, and I misspelled it as `bgre` 100% of the times I typed it
manually. Turns out that `dots` is also consistent with master.lib's
naming scheme, leaving `planar` to *actually* refer to types storing
multiple planes worth of pixels. These types are showing up more and
more, and deserve something better than their previous long-winded and
misleading name.

As used for the title screen fade-in effect. Another function that
apparently was deliberately written to run not that fast, by blitting
each row individually to the 400th VRAM row just so that it can then
turn on the EGC, perform the *actual* masked blit to the VRAM
destination, and then turn the EGC off before moving to the next now.
The same effect could have entirely been accomplished by copying
graph_pack_put_8() and applying the mask there; it's not like ZUN
didn't know how to modify master.lib…
