Various changes for JoJo games

[penguino118]

Changes for Ougon no Kaze:

• Fixed the leading byte on the last two addresses of the Widescreen hack
• Changed the English translation's pnach CRC to match the latest version of the patch (v3.004), added the Widescreen hack
  • Link to the English patch: https://romhackplaza.org/translations/jojo-no-kimyou-na-bouken-ougon-no-kaze-english-translation-playstation-2/
• Added new No-Interlacing patch to both the original game's pnach, and the English translation's
  • The current pnach file for the English patch already had a No-Interlacing patch (It's not present on the normal game's pnach file for some reason), but it modifies assembly code which makes it permanent once applied. Mine just changes the odd-even flags the game reads and flips, so you can turn it off at any point and it goes back to being interlaced.

Changes for Phantom Blood:

• Replaced Widescreen hack with Hudgyn Sasdarl's version, which preserves the original aspect ratio of the 2D overlays.
• Added pnach for the English patch of the game
  • Link to the English patch: https://romhackplaza.org/translations/jojo-no-kimyou-na-bouken-phantom-blood-english-translation-playstation-2/

Also, the widescreen hack included in your pnachs is made by sergx12.

I worked on that patch a couple of years ago with Hudgyn Sasdarl, and he shared it on the forum. It reverts the stretching back to 4:3 in some menus to keep the text rendering from being out of place since that is always rendered stretched. As a result some menus such as the various art viewers and the model viewer screen are stretched 4:3 in that patch instead of proper widescreen. It also has some gameplay issues since it breaks the re-spawning of stage objects, as it disables the occlusion culling check of stage meshes and objects entirely.
