The timer laid out as the original lays it out

Worklog 178 left the timer text at a place read off a screenshot. It is now laid out as 0x8007f5a8 does it:

• the seconds ("%ld" of dt / 300) in font 1, spacing 1, centred across x = 0 by 0x8002e144 (flag 1), the port's Fonts::centre;
• y = D_800c4428 + (D_800c4a06 * 171 >> 11). Read from the oracle in levels 6 and 18: -110 and 240, so y = -90 (TIMER_Y);
• the shadow is the same text 2 right and 2 down.

The clock sprite is made only once, while D_800c464c is zero, at the text's corner then plus (20, 13). After that it stays put while the number's width changes. 0x80078df8 frees it and clears D_800c464c when the timer stops. The port keeps Game::clock_at the same way: set by the first text drawn, cleared when timer is none.

Level 18 at the same frame: the number's rows match the original's (32 to 50 of 240), and the clock is within a few pixels of it.
