Fix 80020148 'game could not be started' on ARK-5: the base PBP's encrypted ~PSP loader fails to link on modern CFW. Use the bundled plain-ELF loader (data/loader/DATA.PSP) as the DATA.PSP section instead, and write the 16-byte NPDRM version key (data/loader/KEYS.BIN) alongside the EBOOT so CFW can decrypt the STARTDAT PGD. Both assets are from iPoPS (MIT, attributed). - load_data_psp: prefer the bundled ELF, fall back to the base ~PSP loader. - load_keys_bin: return the bundled 16-byte key when present. - convert: write KEYS.BIN next to the output EBOOT. - README + data/loader/ATTRIBUTION.md: document the loader and its license.
