Shorter Skill Name Fix

About this project

If you go into a Skill menu that has a longer name than another Skill menu selection, the characters from the longer name will get appended to the shorter name. To fix this,
I added spaces ($FE) to the shorter names until they reach 7 letters.

Thanks to vivify93 for pointing out the bug and Imzogelmo for the fix suggestion.
