Safer live screen swapping

Kanto Gear now keeps dynamic game menus inside a safe 160×144 viewport when
the native game is swapped onto a narrower lower display. The game world can
still fill the display, while menus and choices remain visible instead of
being cropped beyond its right edge.

This is a small companion update for the matched
Gen1Recomp Android Test 0.1.79-kanto.9,
which also restores Gen 1 companion battle controls, party swapping and field
actions and fixes live swapping in Pokémon Gold.
