Hack description

In the Super Famicom version of Final Fantasy VI, the player can rename Cyan's sword techniques from the main menu. Given that the expanded names would not fit into the area of save data memory reserved for them, this feature was removed during localization.

This patch brings the feature back into the game, by implementing a system that allows the names to be partitioned across multiple unused arrays. To create the space needed for insertion, the patch first optimizes the code for the actor
naming menu, merging elements common to both menus.

Source code is included to allow for customization.
