nps: bundle pkg2zip binary and run it via Wine

pkg2zip's prebuilt releases are Windows-only, so ship pkg2zip.exe in
data/bin/ (MIT, mmozeiko) and invoke it through Wine on Linux. find_pkg2zip
prefers the bundled binary, then a configured path, then a native pkg2zip on
PATH. Adds data/bin/ATTRIBUTION.md and README credit.

Requirements & behaviour:
1. Install [`pkg2zip`](https://github.com/mmozeiko/pkg2zip) (the same tool the
pkgi family uses) and either put it on `PATH` or set its path in
**Settings → Store**. NoPayStation `.pkg` files are encrypted PSN packages,
not ZIPs — `pkg2zip` decrypts them.
1. `pkg2zip` decrypts the `.pkg` files (they're encrypted PSN packages, not
ZIPs). A copy ships in `data/bin/pkg2zip.exe` and runs via **Wine** on
Linux — just make sure Wine is installed. You can also put a native
`pkg2zip` on `PATH` or set its path in **Settings → Store**.
2. Set **NoPayStation output dir** in **Settings → Store** (default
`$PSP_STATE_DIR/nps`).
