A 3dslink-like way to load ROMs #24

For potential VUEngine integration. Was suggested elsewhere, putting it here so it doesn't get lost.

Thanks for creating an issue! Here's the details to have them readily available. The idea in a nutshell is that Red Viper runs an integrated FTP server so we can hot reload ROMs via Wifi and seamlessly integrate Red Viper in our development workflows. Basically, one would build the ROM in the IDE, which would, once the build is done, transfer the ROM via FTP to the 3DS running Red Viper, and the latter automatically runs the ROM once fully transferred.

A VBLink PoC has been implemented in recent commits. Maybe I'll make it more transparent, but for now it works. You can access it through the developer settings, or by pressing Y on the main menu (like 3dslink).
