(Re)ripped GSC sprites, sans animations. #197 #102

We now have backsprites and still-frame sprites for Crystal.  I'm
considering the still-frame sprites to be the canon ones to match
Emerald; the current (backwards) animated ones have been moved to
animated/.  We also now have separate backsprites for Silver even
though they're the same as Gold.  Crystal's do sometimes differ.

Turns out the sprites are actually all different sizes, too; it's
just that nobody can tell in-game, since the game places them all
in the same frame.  (Actually, I think it might bottom-align them
in battle and center them in the Pokédex or something; not sure.)
The backsprites are all the same size, but it's not the same size
as the ones we had before.  Either way, I think it's more correct
not to pad the sprites to a uniform size, in-game display aside.

I converted my script's PPM output to PNG with OptiPNG.  It seems
to have rounded the five-bit-per-channel colors to fit eight bits
per channel, which I like.  (Rather than flooring or something?)

Munge SGB colors. Add GBC colors. #245

Firstly: it was discovered (or rather, noticed) that the sprites in
Green have a greenish background (technically, first palette entry)
rather than a reddish one.

1. To properly represent this difference between Red and Green, we would
   have to give Green its own directory.  This is silly, considering
   that the sprites are identical in every other respect.
2. The background is not something inherent to the sprites, but a tint
   which pervades the different versions of the game: Red is red, Green
   is green, and Yellow is yellow.  (Blue is red, not blue.  Don't ask
   me why.)

For these reasons, the Gen I sprites have had their background changed
to white.  (The red background was ugly anyway.)

Secondly: Yellow has an additional set of palettes, which it uses when
played on a Gameboy Color.  Sprites colored with these palettes have
been added to media/yellow/gbc and media/yellow/back/gbc.

It was suggested that the GBC-paletted sprites should be considered the
"main" ones; the argument being that the GBC is more canon (because it
is the platform most people would have played on).

I have kept the SGB-paletted sprites as the main ones, for the following
reasons:

1. By the above argument, the *grayscale* sprites should be considered
   the main ones for Red & Green & Blue, since that is how they would
   appear on a Gameboy.
2. The SGB colors go better with the colors we have for Red & Green &
   Blue.  (They should--they were designed to.)

Some notes:

- The media/jp-blue directory has been renamed to media/red-green.

- The grayscale sprites are found in the "gray" subdirectories.  For
  example, media/red-blue/back/gray/1.png.

- Frontsprites are 40x40, 48x48, and 56x56.  Backsprites are 32x32.
  The game blows backsprites up to 64x64 when it displays them.  The
  previous sprites were all 60x60.

- The sprite colors come from a Super Gameboy extension which allowed
  Gameboy games (which are normally grayscale) to display colors.

- The Red, Blue, and Green sprites have a pinkish, off-white background
  rather than a white one.  This is correct.  The background of the
  Yellow sprites is off-white too, but not as noticable.
