DataReader is generally jank - it has a start and end pointer, but the end pointer is generally not used, and all of the vertex loaders mostly bypassed it anyways. Wrapper code (the vertex loaer test, as well as Fifo.cpp and OpcodeDecoding.cpp) still uses it, as does the software vertex loader (which is not a subclass of VertexLoader). These can probably be eliminated later.
…without a corresponding texture This regressed in 0a906f5, I think (though I haven't confirmed it). Mario Tennis and Luigi's Mansion both use these for some reason (as far as I can tell, the data isn't actually used; it's just extra data included for no reason)

I've also included a commit that enables the vertex loader comparison functionality temporarily, so that fifoci will ensure that this doesn't cause any problems with the software vertex loader.
