rawpsx: an Another World engine reimplementation for PlayStation

rawpsx rewrites the Another World engine in C for the original PlayStation, adapting the earlier rawgl implementation with PSn00bSDK. It reads BANKxx and MEMLIST.BIN from a player's DOS copy and builds a PlayStation ISO. The author reports that the software-rendering branch runs the full DOS version.
