A rewrite of the game mode article for the osu!taiko ruleset, with more proper formating, styling and new information that was missing regarding osu!(lazer).

- `Song selection` now actually contains info about taiko instead of catch, waow I fixed my `ctrl+c` `ctrl+v` mistake after like 3 commits, such a ammasing editor I am!
- Rename `Playfield` into `Differences between Taiko no Tatsujin and osu!taiko`  due to it mostly talking about the differences between the two rather than just talking about the playfield, also if it was only about the playfield it would most likely not even be in the article , let alone in the trivia section.
- fix some grammar and reorder certain lists so every atricle doesn't have a fully random order.

…improvements

- changed 'rythm' to 'rhythm' in `#osu!taiko`
- changed the wording regarding tatacons and enabling them in `#Drum controls`
- moved information about drumroll ticks not being present in TnT to `#Differences between Taiko no Tatsujin and osu!taiko`
- Background difference
- A video or static background image-only beatmap will take up the lower portion of the screen
- If the map has been storyboarded, the storyboard will take over the entire screen, but stay a layer behind the playfield
osu!taiko can also be played using a *TaTaCon* drum controller, which was primarily made for the home ports of *Taiko no Tatsujin* and *Taiko: Drum Master*, but is not as common to be used for osu!taiko. However, the [options](/wiki/Client/Options#other) menu has an option for enabling `Wiimote/TaTaCon Drum support` in osu!(stable) and the `Joystick/Gamepad` option in osu!(lazer) for those that may want to use this kind of controller.

I've seen the term hit come up a good amount of times and i think its a good term to describe both dons and kats at the same time and it also replaces the term note for dons and kats, it also aligns with the lazer editor term for dons and kats - which are also called Hit in the toolbox.

Don and ka notes are technically the same object but only require a different key to be pressed so i think changing Hits into Dons and kats (or something of that kind) works, but just not that well. This isn't that deep tho so i can change it if its found more intuitive by others

TLDR: I'm personaly against this change, but I can change it if its prefered by others
