Resync 6 Neo Geo Pocket Color titles to current No-Intro CRCs

Six NGPC games are keyed in the metadata dats to CRCs from a superseded
No-Intro revision
. This repository's own metadat/no-intro/SNK - Neo Geo Pocket Color.dat already carries the current CRCs, so the metadata
was internally inconsistent — current verified dumps get no genre,
developer, publisher, etc.

Game old CRC current CRC
King of Fighters R-2 - Pocket Fighting Series (World) (En,Ja) D5F69C02 9BC63F27
Metal Slug - 1st Mission (World) (En,Ja) 4C224504 D29EC1BA
Metal Slug - 2nd Mission (World) (En,Ja) F4507FA5 18E692A5
Samurai Shodown! 2 - Pocket Fighting Series (World) (En,Ja) CE88B26D 58A62FB2
SNK vs. Capcom - The Match of the Millennium (World) (En,Ja) A54C3026 682A7A7B
Sonic The Hedgehog - Pocket Adventure (World) 0AD6BCF7 8BD22145

Bonus fix

The "Match of the Millennium (Japan) (Demo)" entry was keyed to the
full game's old CRC A54C3026 (a 4 MB game and a 2 MB demo cannot
share a CRC). It now uses its own current No-Intro CRC 1E19E307.

Scope & verification

  • Updated across every affected category: genre, developer,
    publisher, releaseyear, esrb, franchise, maxusers (47 CRC
    fields in total).
  • Only CRC values changed — no names, category values, or other
    entries touched.
  • Every new CRC was verified present in metadat/no-intro/SNK - Neo Geo Pocket Color.dat, and every superseded CRC verified absent
    from it (i.e. fully superseded, not a coexisting variant).
  • Entry names in the metadata dats already matched the No-Intro names
    exactly; only the CRC had drifted.

Six NGPC games were keyed in the metadata dats to CRCs from a superseded
No-Intro revision. The repository's own metadat/no-intro dat already
lists the current CRCs, so the metadata was internally inconsistent and
failed to match current dumps:

  King of Fighters R-2 - Pocket Fighting Series  D5F69C02 -> 9BC63F27
  Metal Slug - 1st Mission                       4C224504 -> D29EC1BA
  Metal Slug - 2nd Mission                       F4507FA5 -> 18E692A5
  Samurai Shodown! 2 - Pocket Fighting Series    CE88B26D -> 58A62FB2
  SNK vs. Capcom - The Match of the Millennium    A54C3026 -> 682A7A7B
  Sonic The Hedgehog - Pocket Adventure          0AD6BCF7 -> 8BD22145

Also corrects a pre-existing error where the "Match of the Millennium
(Japan) (Demo)" entry shared the full game's old CRC; it now uses its
own current No-Intro CRC 1E19E307.

Updated across all affected categories (genre, developer, publisher,
releaseyear, esrb, franchise, maxusers). CRCs only; no names, values,
or other entries changed. All new CRCs verified present in
metadat/no-intro and all superseded CRCs verified absent from it.
