Plan difficulty and encounter conditions

Death Incarnate requires Apocalyptic completion; the other ending trophies specify any difficulty and Balanced. Leave Usiel alive while defeating Lust for For Whom the Bell Tolls. Also track the Abraxis encounter and the Lord of Hollows' final gift instead of checking only defeated bosses.
