NARC files can have files that does not have names in FNT #15

It seems that all Pokémon Platinum NARC files are structured to have a FAT, but where the FNT is empty. This means, that our current file loading system is not able to load the files, as we load files recursively using the FNT main table and sub-tables.

Seems like Pokémon games are an exception to the rule: https://github.com/pleonex/tinke/blob/1fa7288bb52e1f373dcfd51328874454505b5652/Plugins/Pack/Pack/NARC.cs#L89

Ok, so the solution might be this:

Code in a special case for loading narcs with no names, which just constructs one folder with all the files.
Write the file structure back out the way we do it now, and hopefully, Pokémon games can load these differently written NARCs.
