Abdessamad Derraz 4231902a6c docs: write prose without dashes or semicolons
Profiles, the wiki, comments, docstrings, command output and schema descriptions carried em-dashes, clause-joining semicolons, unicode arrows, box-drawing banners and check-mark glyphs. Each sentence was rewritten rather than having its character swapped. Hashes, paths, source_ref values and every cited file:line are unchanged, which a comparison of each parsed profile against the previous revision confirms.

validate_pr comments now say PASS and FAIL in words, and source_ref values in a profile's structured blocks render as code. test_prose_style fails if any of these comes back, in tracked files or in the generated site.

Terry Cavanagh's VVVVVV game, desktop build. The source release holds
the engine, the level data, the language files and the fonts. Graphics,
music and sounds are in data.zip, which is not in the repository.
FILESYSTEM_init() mounts data.zip from the -assets argument, or from
the binary's directory when no argument is given, and exits with a
"data.zip missing!" message box when the mount fails
(ref: desktop_version/src/FileSystemUtils.cpp:318-346). Recalbox
passes -assets /recalbox/share/roms/ports/vvvvvv/data.zip. The game
accepts the data.zip of the retail release or of the free Make and
Play Edition (ref: desktop_version/src/FileSystemUtils.cpp:332-335).
The lang/ and fonts/ directories are mounted ahead of data.zip from
the binary's directory (ref: desktop_version/src/FileSystemUtils.cpp:81-177,
312-315). Recalbox installs them from the source tree beside the
binary. gamecontrollerdb.txt is read from the binary's directory when
present (ref: desktop_version/src/FileSystemUtils.cpp:349-353).
