    xtrn: state terminal requirements in the graphics-door install descs

    The install-xtrn.ini Desc line is shown to the sysop while installing a
    door, but none of the graphics doors said what terminal the door actually
    needs -- and execution_ars can't express it (Synchronet's ARS has ANSI /
    RIP / PETSCII / TERM: tokens but no sixel or mouse keyword, so ANSI, which
    they all use, is the coarsest gate available and a plain-ANSI terminal
    passes it yet gets no graphics). The doors detect sixel/JXL at runtime and degrade, so this is descriptive, not a gate.

    Add to each graphics door's Desc: "Requires a sixel-capable graphics
    terminal (e.g. SyncTERM)", plus a mouse note only where mouse is a real
    input:

    - mouse supported: the ScummVM adventures (syncbass/queen/lure/drascula/
    spacequest0/cascadequest/betrayedalliance + the syncscumm entry),
    syncmoo1, and the Command & Conquer RTS doors (syncalert/syncdawn)
    - mouse optional: syncdoom, syncduke (opt-in steering toggle)
    - no mouse note (keyboard/gamepad, so omitted as implicit): syncrpg,
    syncivision, syncnes, syncarcade

    Also drops the stale "(M2 test entry)" milestone jargon from the syncscumm package's Desc.

    Config text only.
