Remapping support #13

Here I'm thinking about things like taking a short array in a space-limited rom and moving it to a larger empty space in an expanded rom. Ought to be useful for character/item/monster lists, string lists, things like that.

I'm not sure of the best way to go about it. The trouble with moving data is that anything referencing the old data has to be changed, and there is no game-independent way to do that. Might have to be supported solely via patch merging.
