Kraid Hyper Beam Crash Fix for Super Metroid (SNES) Romhack

Using Hyper Beam to fight Kraid is possible in some hacks or via cheats.
Hitting Kraid triggers his next phase, but touching his body also crashes the game.
This patch fixes the crash, allowing the player to perform the equivalent of the Kraid Quick Kill when using Hyper Beam.
Should also work with other strengthened beams, such as the one in Spazer Plasma Mix by JAM.
NEW! Versions 1.1-1.2 provide compatibility with Map Rando. Thanks to CDude for pointing me to info on Map Rando’s free space.
