Leaflitter: decompiling Paper Mario: Sticker Star for 3DS

Leaflitter decompiles the European release of Paper Mario: Sticker Star for Nintendo 3DS. It extracts code.bin from the user's game copy, generates assembly with n3dsdisasm, and builds source with armcc; utilities process Ghidra headers and symbol names, while make generates objdiff configuration.
