[hle] make HBLoader work, add -hlaunch option (#3981)

hbloader is required to launch a bunch of shit (particularly hbmenu)

however due to some restrictive metadata validation, it doesn't get recognized as an NSP file

programs like hbmenu require hbloader (since it feeds them data like ConfigEntries and whatnot), launching hbmenu as-is standalone will result in a launchInit() error

adds an option to launch hbmenu via command line

If they don't run - then that's a bug!
## Atmosphere
Fusee Galee, the bootloader and other low-level mechanisms are not emulated at the moment.
Having OFW is recommended, but may not be required (untested).
Extract the contents of Atmosphere into `sdmc`. Then to launch simply use `-hlaunch` instead (orthogonal to `-qlaunch`).
