Lufia II Recompiled: a native SNES recompilation

Lufia II Recompiled builds a native version of the SNES game from a user-supplied US ROM with snesrecomp. Game-specific control-flow files guide compilation, while the host supplies input, saves, audio, and SDL or OpenGL rendering; Vulkan is an optional build choice.
