Resolve call-script dispatch: id = raw SYS4INI file index

Native-RE (Ghidra) cracked call-script <id> (opcode 0x03): its handler
FUN_0041bc90 -> loader FUN_0040e980 -> resolver FUN_0044f390 indexes an
80-byte record table at base + id*0x50 == the SYS4INI record layout. So
`call-script <id>` is a direct RAW index into the SYS4INI global file
table (the asset index we already parse) -- there is no separate on-disk
id->code registry. This resolves name-resolution.md #1, statically, no
Frida.

Confirmed: all 297 distinct corpus call-script ids resolve to a .BIN
script with a semantically-exact name (0x1ab->ADDITEM, 0x2ae7->MES,
0x143->BUNKI, 0x329d->CALCREVISE), 0 out-of-range, 0 alternate-pack.
Companion op 0x8f `call` is an intra-script JSR (FUN_0041fba0), not
cross-script.

- parse_sys4ini.py: preserve `raw_index` per entry (= the engine file id;
  index the RAW records incl. '@' placeholders) + emit
  build/callscript-names.json (id->name).
- sys4load.py: annotate `call-script 0x1ab =ADDITEM.BIN`.
- opcodes.toml 0x03/0x8f refined (source=investigation, confidence high,
  handler VAs) + rebuilt opcode-reference.md.
- docs: engine-re.md (op 0x03 section + backlog re-aimed),
  name-resolution.md #1 (SOLVED), script-inventory.md (call graph +
  living-reference decision), tools-reference.md.

### op `0x03` (`call-script`) is a raw index into the SYS4INI file table — SOLVED (2026-07-07)
The long-deferred `call-script <id>` registry (`name-resolution.md §1`) is cracked. Resolved through
the dispatch table (op `0x03` → `ctx[0x26c93+3]` = **`FUN_0041bc90`**), then the loader/resolver chain:
- **`FUN_0041bc90`** (handler): fetches operand 1 (the id), bounds-checks call depth (≤ 0x26), pushes
a script frame, and calls the loader.
- **`FUN_0040e980`** (loader): opens the resource by id, reads the **0x20-byte SYS4 header**, checks
magic, allocates per-frame code/local buffers from the header var-counts, reads the bytecode body,
and pushes a script frame (**stride 0x1e = 30 dwords**, indexed by `ctx[0x14f45]`). Returns to the
caller when the callee ends.
- **`FUN_0044f390`** (resolver — the key): `record = [ctx+0x414] + id*0x50`. The record is exactly the
**SYS4INI 80-byte layout** `{name[64], arc_id@0x40, file_number@0x44, offset@0x48, size@0x4c}`
(count = `[ctx+0x40c]`, archive-name table = `[ctx+0x410]`). It tries a **loose override first**
(`CreateFileA` on `record.name` → the mod/patch hook point), else opens archive
`[record.arc_id*0x100 + ctx+0x410]`, `SetFilePointer` to `record.offset`, size = `record.size`.
High-byte-tagged ids (`id & 0xff000000`) select an alternate pack via `[ctx+0x3028]` — **unused by
the corpus** (0/297 ids carry a high byte).
**So `call-script <id>` = a direct RAW index into the SYS4INI global file table** — the same table
`parse_sys4ini.py` reads, but indexed *without* skipping `@` placeholders (13208 records, 2
placeholders). There is **no separate on-disk id→code registry**; SYS4INI *is* the registry, and we
already had it. **Statically confirmed:** all **297/297** distinct corpus `call-script` ids resolve to
a `.BIN` script with a semantically-exact name (`0x1ab→ADDITEM`, `0x2ae7→MES`, `0x143→BUNKI`,
`0x329d→CALCREVISE`, `0x2add→CALCBTPARAM`), 0 out-of-range, 0 pack-branch. Tooling:
`parse_sys4ini.py` emits `build/callscript-names.json` (id→name); `sys4load` annotates
`call-script 0x1ab =ADDITEM.BIN`; the whole `build/disasm/*.asm` call graph now reads by name. See
`name-resolution.md §1`.
**Companion — op `0x8f` (`call`) is INTRA-script, not cross-script.** Its handler **`FUN_0041fba0`**
sets `[frame PC @+0x53d2c] = [frame codebase @+0x53d28] + operand*4` and pushes a return address on
the per-frame return stack (`[ctx+0x552e8]`/`[ctx+0x55248]`). The operand is a **code offset within
the current script** (matches header table **T3, tag 0x8F** = local call targets). So `0x8f` is a
local JSR; only `0x03` loads another script.
**Follow-up (functional):** the C# VM still *stubs* `call-script`. With the id→resource mapping now
known, it can be implemented for real (load the target `.BIN` from the archive via the SYS4INI record,
push a frame, run, return) — the unlock for subroutine-using scripts and, via the same path,
decision→scene (scenes are just `SCxxxx.BIN` records loaded by their SYS4INI index).

## Native walls backlog (targets for this loop)
- **decision→scene** — how `0x62ccf`/the decision actually selects the next `SCxxxx` (re-aimed away
from `u00428010`; likely call-script-adjacent).
- **call-script dispatch** — `call-script <id>` → engine entry point (`name-resolution.md §1`).
- ~~**call-script dispatch**~~ — **SOLVED** (above): `call-script <id>` = raw SYS4INI file index.
- **decision→scene** — how `0x62ccf`/the decision selects the next `SCxxxx`. Now narrower: scenes load
via `call-script`/the same SYS4INI-index loader, so the open question is only where the decision
value is turned into a scene *id* (a caller of SCJUMP; re-aimed away from `u00428010`).
- **op `0x60`** (`u0041A270`) — the rand-like value gating 1732/1755 SCJUMP decisions.
- **gfx command-buffer** — the `0x2120x21a` positioned-object subsystem (`scjump`-unrelated; the
rendering drift).
