Various hint updates/improvements

Browse Source 
This update makes the hint system work much better with simpler shuffles, fixes a bug by which two of the paradox cave entrances had reversed instructions in hints, and prevents the useless hint of there being a skull woods small key in the skull woods pinball room. Progressive Bow is added to the important item list for hints. Further tweaks to some hint language may still be incoming, but this should address the structure of the hint system pretty completely.
