Gen.lua

-- The two generation profiles.
--
-- This is the ONLY module that names a generation, and nothing in the mod
-- asks which game is running.  main.lua registers one screen factory per
-- profile, under "StartMenu" and "Gen2StartMenu"; the engine resolves only
-- the id belonging to the boot it is on, so the generation is settled
-- structurally rather than by a version test.  That is what MK409 asks for
-- ("test for the capability the code needs instead of the version") and it
-- keeps the entry chunk clear of MK410, since nothing has to read a game
-- that is not up yet.
--
-- iconPickerId is the same trick applied to IconPicker.lua: each profile's
-- markTrueColor differs (Gen 1 punches the phone rect true-colour, Gen 2 is
-- already in colour and no-ops it), so the picker needs its own registered
-- factory per generation too, not one shared registration guessing which
-- deps table to have closed over.

-- Gen 2 nine; the profiles are declared here so both modules can see the
