canAutoCancelWeapon (Very Hard)

The ability to set a HUD equipment item (Missile, Super, Power Bomb, Grapple, XRay Scope) to be single use. Doing this allows for a fast beam shot following the item use, or can reduce button input complexity. The button combination is 'Item Select' + 'Item Cancel' pressed together.

Auto Cancel Missile Tricky Dodge (Extreme)
Bat Cave
From: 1
Bottom Left Door
To: 2
Top Right Door

Enter the room with a Missile selected on auto-cancel, holding angle-up. Fire a Missile shot to kill the first Skree, then run right and immediately fire a beam shot to destroy the shot block. Run off the edge and down-grab onto the next platform. Run and jump directly up where the shot block used to be, moving quickly enough to dodge the Skree projectiles by going under them. Use a wall jump, HiJump, or a mid-air spring ball jump to make it up.

Dev note: FIXME: this can be done without a Missile (only Power Beam) with only about 5 more heat frames.
