GameSpeed is a single fast-forward multiplier applied uniformly to the
whole logic clock -- overworld walking, menu navigation and battle turns
all scale together. A player who wants 4X battles but 1X overworld (so a
cutscene or NPC dialogue doesn't blur past) has no way to get both.
Splits save.options.speed into speedOverworld/speedBattle/speedMenu, each
cycling independently, with an automatic migration so an existing save's
speed choice carries over. Game.speedCategoryInStack resolves which
category is active by walking the state stack (the same idiom
wideBattleInStack/fillScaleInStack already use), so a menu opened mid-
battle inherits battle speed rather than resetting to whatever "menu"
defaults to. Adds a new core.logic_speed hook so a mod can read or
override the resolved multiplier for the current frame regardless of
which category produced it, sitting after the link-play and run-argument
overrides so neither is a seam a mod can defeat.
RFC 0007 status: Proposed.
Add 3X as a speed option between 2X and 4X in GameSpeed.LEVELS (#677).
Add controller hotkeys: rightshoulder (R2) cycles speed up through the
level list, leftshoulder (L2) cycles speed down. Keyboard equivalent
is hotkey 1 (cycles up). All hotkeys are gated during transitions,
scripted cutscenes, and link play (same guards as the color hotkey
at key 2).
The _cycleSpeed helper wraps the save-options update with the same
busy/overworld guard used by the existing color-cycle hotkey.
Fixes#677
