REFLEC BEAT plus: reconstructed iOS game source

REFLEC BEAT plus reconstructs Objective-C and C++ source for version 4.5.8 of the iOS rhythm game. The project uses Objective-C metadata, C++ RTTI, embedded strings, and original path fragments to organize the recovered routines; a separate OpenAPI file describes requests observed in the client. Building requires a user-supplied IPA for game assets.
