Hot Pursuit 2 PS2 recompilation setup

Scripts and runtime patches that build the US PS2 Hot Pursuit 2 locally with exoteric33's ps2-native-recomp from the player's own disc image. It reaches the menu and the first race, with a pinned PCSX2 widescreen patch and intro skip, but still runs below full speed.
