The STARTUP0 check is not only redundant but also was wrong. It already gets checked and validated in the asset loading loop, and this up-front check did not handle placement as a graphic.
* for Strife the game palette must be loaded before the start screen.
* increase update frequency of start screen to roughly 35 fps
* fixed Strife's laser sprite names.
* do not show the native progress bar if a graphical start screen is used.
