Horizontal scrolling help text: FCT_ScrollHelpText.js

Terms of use
- wherever you want, commercial or not, don't care.
- credit @ Foucal if you want, don't care either.

Introduction
Wanting an horizontal scrolling text for my game in MV, I searched everywhere and could find only one, but it didn't work for me. So I created one myself, very simple. It scrolls from right to left, where you can adjust speed and waiting time in particular. You can still use escape characters codes proposed in YEP_MessageCore and stuff for example.

However, keep in mind I am no computer scientist, I know just enough to do what I want in programming, hence plugin works but there are very little if no error handling or whatsoever. If you want to make it more robust, feel free to do so ! Also, it is made only for MV but if you want to port it to MZ, no problem ! (souldn't be difficult)

Disclaimer
This plugin is intended to work as expected only with ONE line of help text. It still scrolls if you set more, but for me it actually does not make sense to scroll text in that case: which line do you scroll? and why? So for the sake of simplicity, default number of lines is set to 1. That way, just write your one line text in the item/skill/whatever description and you are good to go.

Features
- change number of lines in help window ; it can be forced even in Scene_File and any other additional scene that calls Window_Help(X)
- change scroll speed and waiting time.
