sylph-decoder 6ba003219b re: DIFFICULTY is a dialog -- DLG_SELECT_DIFFICULTY, GP_DIALOG entries 2/3 ...

Closes a negative of mine whose failed assumption I had named: I searched for an
8-record btn-named build in an archive of its own, assuming DIFFICULTY's four items
pair with f variants the way GP_TITLE's screens do. It has its own prefix and is
not a GamePart screen at all.

Three independent routes agree. The image lists DLG_SELECT_DIFFICULTY among the
DLG_* dialog names at 0x820A41BB, and GP_DIFFICULTY appears zero times. GP_DIALOG
entries 2/3 are the only builds there with pcbtn00..03 -- four buttons at design
rows 259/329/399/469, spacing 70, an EN/JP pair. And my capture of the running
screen puts its four rows within 4 px of those, with spacing 70.5/69.5/70.0 against
the disc's 70/70/70.

Reach stated: the entries are identified by button count and geometry, not by a
binding from the DLG_ name to a pak entry. No such binding was found.

Also notes the consequence for Q6's count-match: NEW GAME opens a DIALOG from an
external archive, which still matches the count but is not the same category as
OPTIONS or TUTORIAL opening a GamePart.
