This includes all the collision stuff needed to spawn `target`,
decompiles the sparticle code and adds some of the PC hacks needed for
merc to run (it doesn't work quite right and looks bad, likely due to a
combination of code copied from Jak 2 and the time of day hacks).
There are a bunch of temporary hacks (see commits) in place to prevent
the game from crashing quite as much, but it is still extremely prone to
doing so due to lots of missing functions/potentially bad decomp.

Normally, when they allocate a VagCmd, they do a bunch of stuff to clear
all the status bits and reset things
in particular the InitVAGCmd function does a lot
but for the stereo command, they do a lot less:
Which means that the new_stereo_command can just have random status bits
left over from whatever the last user had.
we seem to end up in a state where byte21 is set, and this causes
everything else to be wrong and off-by-one dma transfer. My guess is
that the original game avoided this bug due to lucky timing that I don't
understand.
I think the fix of just clearing byte21 is ok because there's no way
that the old value of the byte is useful after the command is
repurposed.
Also fixed an original game bug in `loader.gc` on a method that's called
quite often, though I have no clue what erroneous behavior it could have
even caused.
