funman300 404e859cb6 docs(fifa17): the caption path is not in CardsDLL, and a 4th definitionId check
Chased the league-logo lead to a useful boundary and stopped there.
FUN_180119bd0 — the cardtype-7 caption resolver the whole club-item story rests
on — has ZERO references anywhere in CardsDLL: no call, no jmp, address never
taken in .text/.rdata/.data. It is nonetheless a real function. An unreferenced
real function in a DLL is almost certainly an export, which puts its caller in
FIFA17.exe. So the owned cardtype-9 caption path is not in CardsDLL and looking
for it there is wasted effort; the launch probe remains far cheaper than parsing
the export table and 79 MB of EXE.

Also verified definitionId a fourth way, by a different method than the existing
three: every real atom name appears exactly once in CardsDLL's .rdata
(resourceId, cardsubtypeid, itemState, assetId, cardassetid, rareflag, owners,
contract, discardValue, and localizedName), while definitionId is absent
entirely. Recorded but NOT applied — the path carrying it is live-proven and the
saving is payload only.

Method note added: CardsDLL is .text 0x180001000, .rdata 0x1801e5000, .data
0x18028a000. Confusing a live mapping offset with an image offset reads the wrong
section and returns false negatives — it made every atom lookup, controls
included, come back ABSENT until corrected. Validate scans against a known key.
