Twisted Metal: Black Re-Arc Project: matching PS2 source reconstruction

Twisted Metal: Black Re-Arc Project reconstructs source for the game's NTSC PlayStation 2 executable through matching decompilation. Its build splits the user's SCUS_971.01 ELF, combines disassembled objects with reconstructed C and C++, and relinks an executable for comparison with the original.
