This adds a program to help users set their SID.

The SID is determined by the number of RNG advances between finalizing the player character's name and finishing the Professor Oak dialogue. The user manually enters their player name, and then starts the program before confirming it.

SID can't be directly checked without custom firmware or ACE (which isn't available until pretty far into the game). Getting a shiny starter is typically how SID is confirmed, so testing for this will probably go hand in hand with an autonomous shiny starter manip program.

Depends on #1171 and #1172
