*Finally*. We already used `(unsigned) int` in quite a few places where
we actually want a 16-bit value, which was bound to annoy future port
developers.
No need to declare most of these in C land if 1) it isn't even clear
yet whether we can even decompile these functions with their 2)
complex __usercall conventions, which 3) aren't even called from
outside this slice. --Nmlgc
The pascal calling convention for TH03's input mode functions actually
sort of matters, since we have this nice function pointer type that
expects pascal.
Yeah… such fun pretending that the original code wasn't copy-pasted.
And yes, Reimu will have to wait until the next one.

And if I don't manage to cover Reimu in this push, it's because ZUN
switched around the cases in half of the functions here… 😵 Here's
some macros instead, to make the code at least *look* as table-driven
and readable as it should have been in the first place.

Ooh, shot position being determined by RNG at lower shot levels? That's
some RNG manipulation TAS potential right there! Maybe.
Part of P0037, funded by zorg.
That should make this convoluted copypasta a bit easier to read. And
sure, I could have done something about the loop as well, but
SHOT_FUNC_INIT already hides enough control flow behind a macro…

A TH05 innovation that actually makes the game code easier to read?!
Although it was quite hard to actually reverse-engineer it, with the
confusing flag ordering pointing to some deeper meaning behind the
flags, which really doesn't exist.

It seems that the main th0?/ directories should only contain actual
translation units (of which there are more than previously assumed)
as well as other not really further classifiable slices?

And once again, the TH05 version is un-decompilable. :/ It was pretty
close this time, though, as the entire block between PUSH DI and POP DI
kind of resembles a separate inlined function, in accordance with Turbo
C++'s automatic backup of the DI register, as researched in 7f971a0.
Except that it contains a loop, and Turbo C++ refuses to inline any
function with `do`, `while`, `for`, or `goto`. If it didn't, it would
have totally worked.
Also, yes, C++ class methods are treated identically in this regard.
Oh well. Shot type control functions next, finally!

Yes, if you collect more than 255 point items in one TH04 stage, the
counter will overflow to 0.
It's a 16-bit word in both TH02 and TH05.
Part of P0034, funded by zorg.
So it's *_put(), inherited from master.lib, for everything just writing
to text RAM, and *_render() for everything more involved? But what
about master.lib's own graphics RAM functions like super_put()? Need to
fix that inconsistency some day.
Once again no decompilation, because…

The TH02 version is a piece of cake…
… but TH04 starts turning it into this un-decompilable piece of
unnecessarily micro-optimized ZUN code. Couldn't have chosen anything
better for the first separate ASM translation unit.
Aside from now having to convert names of exported *variables* to
uppercase for visibility in ASM translation units, the most notable
lesson in this was the one about avoiding fixup overflows. From the
Borland C++ Version 4.0 User's Guide:
"In an assembly language program, a fixup overflow frequently
occurs if you have declared an external variable within a
segment definition, but this variable actually exists in a
different segment."
Can't be restated often enough.

Rule of thumb going forward: Everything that emits data is .asm,
everything that doesn't is .inc.
(Let's hope that th01_reiiden_2.inc won't exist for that much longer!)

"Yeah, let's do this real quick, how can this possibly be hard, it's
just MOVs and a few function calls"…
…except that these MOVs access quite a lot of data, which we now all
have to declare in the C world, hooray.
Once it came to midbosses and bosses, I just turned them into C structs
after all. Despite what I said in 260edd8… after all, the ASM world
doesn't care about the representation in the C world, so they don't
necessarily have to be the same.
Since these structs can't contain everything related to midbosses and
bosses (really, why did all those variables have to be spread out like
this, ZUN?), it also made for a nice occasion to continue the "stuff"
naming scheme, describing "an obviously incomplete collection of
variables related to a thing", first seen in 160d4eb.
Also, PROCDESC apparently is the only syntactically correct option to
declare an extern near proc?
Also, that `boss_phase_timed_out` variable only needs to be here
already because TCC enforces word alignment for the .data segment…
yeah, it's technically not related to this commit, but why waste time
working around it if we can just include that one variable.
Completes P0030, funded by zorg.
I've had the idea to hide this implementation detail and improve code
readability for some time now, but it obviously must still all inline,
to be indistinguishable from a direct assignment of the correct value…
… which, amazingly, it does! Even the static_cast from float to int.
The latter allows us to exclusively implement this for float, since we
do have to express the occasional value smaller than 16.
Who needs macros anyway. Yay, C++ in TH04 and TH05 after all!
Part of P0030, funded by zorg.
… yeah, I don't really like these ambiguous "mode" and "mode change"
variable names either, but what's the alternative? Something something
"sub-phase", to distinguish them from regular phases? Feels way too
early to decide on something more specific. And pretty much nothing I
could come up with right now would have made their inconsistent use any
clearer.
But I need to decide on *something* before moving on, so… eh, let's
just go with what uth05win chose.
Also, yeah, dealing with those 0xFE and 0xFD boss_phase constants some
other time 😛
Also, today in "Weird TASM crashes": Trailing commas at the end of
`public` lines…

Many thanks to http://bytepointer.com/tasm/index.htm for providing a
better searchable resource for TASM's default `LEA imm16` → `MOV imm16`
optimization, which we initially had to hack around here.

So apparently, this way of distorting a circle into an ellipse (?) by
adding a value to the angle for one of the two coordinates isn't
actually widely known in math and doesn't have a name. Fair enough.

Sure, I like me some global variables too. If you have to temporarily
replace them for a single function call though, it's pretty much the
textbook example of where *not* to use them.
