Ninja Gaiden II - static recompilation for Windows (Vulkan)

Run ng2.exe. The first time it asks about portable mode (below), then installs the game:
  1. Your copy of the game: a disc image (.iso), the Games on Demand package (the file in
     544307D5\00007000, next to its .data folder), or default.xex in an extracted copy.
     A disc image or package is copied into %LOCALAPPDATA%\NinjaGaiden2\game (about 7 GB).
  2. Title Update 3 for the World release: its package (TU_1A461UL_000000G000000.00000000000O4)
     or default.xexp.
  3. Downloadable content, optional: the folder with the packages (544307D5\00000002).
     More can be added later in the "dlc" folder inside the game folder.

Needs a CPU with SSE4.2 and a GPU with Vulkan 1.3 drivers. The Microsoft Visual C++ runtime DLLs
are included. ng2.exe starts ng2-avx2.exe, the faster build, where the CPU has AVX2.

Settings, saves and the log are in %LOCALAPPDATA%\NinjaGaiden2. Portable mode: with a file named
portable.txt next to ng2.exe, they go in a "userdata" folder next to it instead (the folder must be
writable, so not inside Program Files). No game data is included.
