FIFA Street 2: an early Xbox static recompilation for Windows

fifastreet2-recomp attempts a native Windows port of the Xbox version of FIFA Street 2 through static recompilation with xboxrecomp. Its documented pipeline parses and disassembles the user's XBE, classifies functions, generates C, and starts a host runtime that reaches the recompiled entry point.
