Add: Vita3K - PSVITA about retrodeck HOT 5 CLOSED

https://github.com/XargonWan/RetroDECK/tree/feat/vita3k

from retrodeck.

Vita3K cannot be installed as a flatpak module as it's writing stuff inside its own directory instead of writing in config or data dirs as the common applications.
So it must be installed differently.

The vita3k module is downloading the emulator that comes in a zip file into /app/retrodeck/vita3k.zip and preparing the symlink into /app/bin/Vita3K albeit the destination is not existing (it will esist later on).

So when we prepare the emulator via RetroDECK Framework we should unpack /app/retrodeck/vita3k.zip into /var/data/vita3k and chmod +x /var/data/vita3k/Vita3K .

Multi user note

The user configuration for Vita3K is found in ux0/user/## folder, so if we want to really have different users we need to parse the user.xml file and edit it accordignly as any user got its files.
At the moment exists only one user called RetroDECK.

NOTE: the same can be valid for PS3 as well as they're using a very similar system.

PS Vita Firmware Downloader Tool

The script could be like:

• Do you want to install the PSVita firmware? y/n
• Installing the firmware, please wait.

cd /tmp # or wherever the others are downloaded, check PS3
curl "http://dus01.psv.update.playstation.net/update/psv/image/2022_0209/rel_f2c7b12fe85496ec88a0391b514d6e3b/PSVUPDAT.PUP" -po PSVUPDAT.PUP
curl "http://dus01.psp2.update.playstation.net/update/psp2/image/2019_0924/sd_8b5f60b56c3da8365b973dba570c53a5/PSP2UPDAT.PUP?dest=us" -po PSP2UPDAT.PUP
Vita3K --firmware PSVUPDAT.PUP
Vita3K --firmware PSP2UPDAT.PUP

NOTE: this script in included in the actual Vita3K init/reset script at seems like Vita3K cannot run without a firmware.
The firmware is not that big, just 200mb in total.
