Logic fixes

Two spots were in logic without the items they actually need:

• Inner Quarters / Chronomage: getting past the Chronomage now correctly requires the Galamoth soul (or that of Chronomage itself). Logic previously mistakenly assumed you could get through with nothing.
• The room past Graham (Dracula's Tunic, Black Panther): these two checks were assumed to be reachable just by getting to Graham's room (a legacy of targeting Graham initially as far as a release went). They now require being able to reach the Book souls as well.

Under the hood

Fixed how logic ties a room's checks/enemies to its doors: they were attached to the neighbor side of a door, so a requirement on a door crossing didn't actually gate that room's contents (which is what let the Graham room leak). They now attach to the room's own side, so door gates apply correctly. No effect on existing seeds beyond the two fixes above.
