Document more of the debug menu.

Debug Menu#

A decent sized debug menu can be accessed with the below code. This menu allows you to view all of the images in game, play all of the SFX, test controller vibration options, unlock everything and select any of the game's events. This debug menu can also be found in Aria The Origination: ~Aoi Hoshi no El Cielo~.
