MediEvil: a native PC port of the 2019 PS4 game

MediEvil for PC runs the 2019 PS4 game's own x86-64 executable on Windows through replacement PS4 system libraries and a shadPS4-based Vulkan graphics core. The launcher accepts the user's unpacked game folder or fake PKG and supplies patches, resolution controls and input support.
