Bulk assets (mp3, png) are already compressed at the file level, so a
DEFLATE pass on top bought negligible space for real CPU cost. Packs
everything into a single ZIP_STORED archive instead, so every entry
(not just locale/*) gets the reliable repeated seeking/re-opening that
libzip only supports for uncompressed entries. Header shrinks from 32
to 16 bytes; version bumped to 2 so a stale pre-change dusk.dsk is
rejected and rebuilt rather than misread.

Cutscenes now parse their authored .jsonc straight into the runtime
cutsceneitem_t/pool representation via yyjson, instead of going through a
separate Python-compiled DCTS binary format - removes the whole
build/compile step and the byte-format contract between the Python
encoder and the C decoder, at the cost of a (still tiny, one-time)
parse per cutscene load.
Also fixes dusk.dsk going stale after a build: the old custom_command
depended on a CMake-configure-time file glob, which only re-detects
added/removed assets on the next configure and could miss edits
entirely. tools.asset.pack now always runs and decides for itself
(via a small manifest) whether anything actually needs repacking, so
asset changes are never missed regardless of add/edit/remove.

Splits the asset archive into a compressed (DEFLATE) zip and an
uncompressed (STORED) zip back to back behind a small header, instead of
one plain zip. DEFLATE-compressed zip entries aren't reliably seekable in
libzip, which caused locale string lookups (repeated rewind/reopen of the
same entry) to silently skip content on Dolphin specifically. Uncompressed
entries don't have that problem, so locale files now go in the stored
archive without needing to buffer the whole thing in memory.
Adds tools/asset/pack as the new packer (replacing the plain
`tar --format=zip`), a shared assetdsk.h/.c opener used by all platforms,
and a second ASSET.zipStored handle with fallback lookup in assetfile.c.
Confirmed working: Linux, PSP (PPSSPP), and Dolphin-FAT (Wii DOL under
-a LLE) - the original Dolphin locale lookup failure no longer reproduces.
