Promote Xevious (U) and Zanac (U) from _wip/ to NROM/

- Xevious (U): Promoted from _wip/NROM/Xevious (U)/ to NROM/Xevious (U)/ - Pass 3 complete: 34.5% code coverage, 143 semantic entry points, 4 named data tables, ~20 semantic ZP aliases - NROM mapper 0, 32 KB PRG, 8 KB CHR, horizontal mirroring - Zanac (U): Promoted from _wip/UNROM/Zanac (U)/ to NROM/Zanac (U)/ - Pass 3 complete: 34.5% code coverage (bank 7 only), 133 semantic entry points, 26 named data tables, 14 semantic ZP aliases - UNROM mapper 2, 128 KB PRG (8 banks), no CHR - Bank 7 fixed at CPU -; banks 0-6 switchable at 000- - Bank 7 assembled separately as prg.07.s with .org Both projects build byte-identical. Updated root README.md inventory, per-project details, and WIP.md accordingly. Move Zanac (U) to UNROM/ mapper directory Zanac (U) is a UNROM (mapper 2) game, not NROM (mapper 0). Move it to the correct mapper directory and update README.md and WIP.md references accordingly. Update project counts in WIP.md (857->856 total, UNROM 98->97 projects). Promote Mermaids of Atlantis (U) from _wip/ to MAPPER8/ Additional cleanup of Mermaids of Atlantis

+# Mermaids of Atlantis (U)
+
+## Status
+
+**Pass 1 complete.** The code/data split has been produced by `nesdis.py` and
+the project builds byte-identical to the original ROM. `prg.s` now contains
+traced code with audit comments and `.byte` data blocks for unreached bytes.
+
+`make` assembles `header.s`, `prg.s`, `chr.s`, links them with `ld65` and compares the
+result against `rom.nes`:
+
+```
+Byte-identical ROM verified.
+```

+- Two computed-dispatch mechanisms were recovered via declared jump tables:
+  - `jmp ($fe)` at $BA88 indexes a 16-entry table at $BA8B (targets in $BAAB–$BB20 range)
+  - `jmp ($4)` at $CA07 indexes a 64-entry table at $CA0A (targets mostly in $CA–$CB and $C0–$C3 ranges)
+- One branch at $E40A targets $E3B5, which falls inside the operand of `jsr $CF2F` at $E3B3. Emitted as `.byte` with an explanatory comment since the target cannot be a label.
+- Six addresses contain undocumented/illegal opcodes not decoded by the tracer: $9848, $A2C3, $CD89, $E0FF, $E3B5, $F230.

 # Disassembly Project Index — /home/tmerritt/Projects/disasm/

-This document provides a consolidated overview of the **promoted** NES disassembly projects in the repository. Projects are organized **by mapper** into a folder per project under `NROM/`, `AOROM/`, `CNROM/`, `MMC1/`, `MMC3/`, `MMC5/` or `UNROM/` — everything here so far is mapper 0, so all promoted projects live in `NROM/`. The pre-promotion tier mirrors the structure under `_wip/<MAPPER>/<Project>/` and is documented separately in **`WIP.md`** (857 projects across 30 mapper folders). Each project folder is **flat**: the source (`prg.s`, plus `header.s`/`chr.s` where present), the build config (`linker.cfg`, `symbols.inc`, `locals.inc`, `Makefile`) and the ROM splits all sit directly in the folder. Each project carries its own `README.md` (the file was called `OVERVIEW.md` before 2026-10-20) with a detailed power-on execution flow analysis.

Disassembled **from scratch**: the map was derived from this dump's own committed split, with no name, map or file carried over from the row-32 dump. Pass 2 named all 194 `Label_XXXX` definitions and resolved all 48 raw `$XXXX` call operands (map in `routinemap.tsv`); Pass 3 added 30 semantic zero-page aliases applied only at the proven sites (`sites.tsv`) and named 28 data tables, including `CharacterDataTable` ($C66A) / `CharacterNameStrings` ($C67E), where the ROM itself names Blinky, Pinky, Inky and Clyde. **A Pass 1 correction came with it:** six command handlers were recovered — `ScriptCommandTable` ($EFDD) is read by the traced instruction at $EFCC and six of its entries point at $F00A, $F022, $F03A, $F052, $F062 and $F072, all of which the tracer had left as data, two of them mis-split across the `jmp $EF61` at $F01F and $F04F.

 **`Hogan's Alley (JU)` promoted 2026-10-20** — a light-gun game whose engine dispatches through **inline** tables: `IndirectCall` at $C34D pops the return address of the `jsr` that called it and reads a 16-bit handler pointer from the word that follows, so all six handler tables ($C124 19 entries, $C219 4, $C89C 14, $CDD1 1, $D234 2, $D3D6 14) live *inside* the code stream and the static tracer cannot follow them. **A Pass 1 correction came with it:** the committed split was a strict subset of the correct one — a merged Mesen Code Data Logger capture (five captures OR-ed, 6,544 code bytes) showed **1,216 bytes** that the tracer had left as data were code, taking the split from 41.8% to 49.1%; five bytes moved the other way. The four branch targets the reclassifier could not prove were turned into labels by the new `_tools/resolve_raw_branches.py`.
