canSlopeXMode (Insane)

The ability to enter X-Mode by using a frame perfect direction switch damage boost to land samus onto a slope and enter X-Mode This method of X-Mode doesn't require Morph but cannot be used to charge a shinespark, only for room traversal or gaining a bluesuit if shinecharged when entering X-Mode. Walking into a solid tile while in X-Mode will crash the game.

Have X-Ray selected and buffer a jump input. Stand next to a slope tile and walk into an enemy, frame perfectly switch directions and hold dash on contact with an enemy, landing on the slope and entering X-Mode. Jump can be released anytime after X-Mode is entered.

Dev note: A flash suit can be used while in X-Mode, but any unused flash suit will be lost when X-Ray is released. Using a flash suit during X-Mode should be represented by a `useFlashSuit` immediately before `canSlopeXMode`.
