Breath of Fire III decompilation: matching the US PlayStation release

Breath of Fire III decompilation reconstructs the US PlayStation game's executable and loaded modules as C89 source checked against original bytes. It uses GCC 2.7.2-PSX and maspsx for matching, with emulator observations, game-format notes, and tools for inspecting text, audio, and graphics.
