Make disk-wipe embedded

[teknowledgist]

Attempting to install the disk-wipe package gave me a 403 error. Maybe the site is blocking scripted downloads?

Anyway, manually downloaded it and checked the included license. It is freely distributable. IMHO, an embedded Chocolatey package is better -- especially for old, possibly abandoned software -- to give users another option for obtaining it, so I converted this to an embedded package.

Hope you approve!

Amen from me brother. I'll pull it down sometime and verify it works and then pull it in. Probably not for a bit TBH.

I'm going to officially state that I have not tested this, but it looks good and I trust you, so.....

Geez that icon is horrible, I'm going to change it to the site's "box shot." and there's a little cleanup that I'll do based on:
