9mm Vita: rehosting 9mm HD Android on PS Vita

9mm Vita ports 9mm HD Android to PS Vita by loading the user's ARMv7 game executable into memory. Its native compatibility layer resolves imports, patches a checked game build and maps Vita controls, while the user's APK and downloaded game data supply the original program and assets.
