mid2agb missing

[bitter6290]

While I was trying to patch FireRed with CFRU using a Mac, I encountered the error "There was an error compiling the engine: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'mid2agb'". While I was able to fix the same problem when it occurred with wav2agb by installing that program, I haven't had the same luck with mid2agb.

After encountering the same issue, I was able to resolve it (albeit in Linux) by adding the CFRU deps directory to my path, flagging the executables in there as executable, and adding symlinks for wav2agb, mid2agb, and grit in deps.

ln -s wav2agb.exe wav2agb
ln -s mid2agb.exe mid2agb
ln -s grit.exe grit

I solved this by compiling grit and wav2agb for macOS arm64, but mid2agb is closed source, so what worked was actually just running it through wine. Put a fork with the binaries and the updated command up here:

Complete-Fire-Red-Upgrade-macOS-arm64

Note that this is for Apple Silicone macs, and it worked on mine. Haven't tested running it elsewhere.
