Research direction

Start by reproducing the freeze in BizHawk 2.11.1 by opening Shinsenden under NESHawk and choosing the search command (みる). Trace the NESHawk path used by that command and compare its behavior with real hardware. Done means the search command no longer freezes the emulated game while preserving the reported hardware behavior.
