Use amiibo menu to store collected hints #160

The amiibo menu looks like this image Pressing L shows this image Pressing R shows this image

Since using amiibo for this is essentially useless in rando, we could replace either info box with our hint text and append new hints when they are found. Left side talks about the Metroid amiibo, so DNA hints can go there. Later on, if we end up adding item hints as well, then we could use the other info box, since that talks about items and fits the theme.

Another idea is to use lua and have all the hint locations listed with other text labels next to the names as ???. Once a hint is collected, increment some counter that then updates the corresponding ??? with the hint text.
