Adds fifa17-recon/tools/apt_decode.py, a clean-room decoder for the EA APT
compiled-ActionScript format as FIFA 17 ships it, and deletes avm1_disasm.py,
which assumed SWF framing and could not decode this artifact.
FORMAT. FIFA 17 uses a 64-bit variant of the format: constant-pool entries are
16-byte {u64 type, u64 value} in a separate "Apt1" container member, container
pointers and counts are u64, DefineFunction2's operand block is 48 bytes rather
than 28, its 0x1234567898765432 trailer is stored as two u64 halves, and
parameterised instructions align their operand block to EIGHT bytes, not four.
The alignment is the fact that made the stream decodable: the ConstantPool at
0xd38 yields garbage at align-4 and count=401 at align-8, with an index array
that terminates exactly on the parameter-list region.
The three opcodes that blocked the previous attempt are all unaligned 2-byte
records: 0xAF EA_GetNamedMember (u8 constant-pool index, pop object push member),
0xB9 EA_PushRegister (u8 register index), 0xA2 EA_PushConstantByte (u8
constant-pool index). Byte-wide indices only reach pool entries 0-255, which is
why CheckIsKitLocked at index 293 is emitted as 0xA3 PushConstantWord.
Format facts came from a written specification derived from OpenSAGE
(588ac477367a0022adf29f20a084e8873014e6ce, GPL-3.0 with EA section 7 additional
terms). No code was copied or transliterated; only the interface specification
was used. Provenance is recorded in the module docstring.
VALIDATION. The whole artifact decodes: 5251 instructions, 24 functions, action
stream 0xd38..0x3e75 with 12605 of 12605 bytes covered and zero interior gaps,
zero unresolved opcodes, zero invalid branch targets, zero unresolved strings.
Every byte of the 20630-byte member is accounted for by region. --selftest
asserts all of it, plus operand fixtures and fail-closed behaviour on truncated
records, out-of-range pool indices and unknown opcodes. Unknown opcodes still
refuse to guess a length rather than resynchronising.
RESULT. KITS_AVAILABLE is a BOOLEAN in the DataProvider header, not a count, so
the logged Some(0) means false. futSelectTeam::Publish reads
publishObject.header.KITS_AVAILABLE == true and only then fills m_arrKitPanelData
from data[side].LENGTH and data[side]["KIT_"+i]; CardsDLL's builder writes
exactly that shape ("LENGTH" and "KIT_%d" confirmed in .rdata). The flag comes
from ctx+0x152, whose only setter is internal message 0x757a. That message is
never constructed in ActionScript (the asset contains zero integer literals
above 255) and never sent by CardsDLL (247 of 247 send sites pass an immediate,
none of them 0x757a; four sites in the same family are the positive control).
So no HTTP response can open this gate, and no OpenFUT change is made here.
CheckIsKitLocked is called at 0x2cc3 but defined on the mcSelectTeam child clip
in another asset, so its body is deliberately NOT reconstructed rather than
guessed. Full findings in the Vault under Kit Selector APT Decode.
