OB64 Decomp: matching Ogre Battle 64 from MIPS assembly to C

Reconstructs the US Rev 0 release of Ogre Battle 64 from source-owned MIPS assembly, replacing accepted functions with C that matches linked bytes and the full ROM. Its workflow records compiler and relocation constraints, tests each replacement, and keeps the original ROM and toolchains outside the repository.

Requirements & limits

Prerequisites: A legally obtained Ogre Battle 64 US Rev 0 ROM is required; US Rev 1 is outside the project's scope.
Prerequisites: The documented matching setup uses Windows, Node.js, a pinned KMC GCC 2.7.2 toolchain, Splat, and GNU Binutils.
Scope: Semantic identification remains separate from byte-matching progress.
