Transitioned to BBN Launcher (BBNL) v2.0

- Dropped APA support in favor of loading OPL, POPStarter, Neutrino, and configuration files from the exFAT partition to speed up initialization.
- Moved BBNL to the APA header to further improve loading times.
- Removed dependency on renamed POPStarter ELF files to launch PS1 VCDs; POPStarter is now launched directly with a boot argument.
- NHDDL now launches in ATA mode, improving startup time and avoiding potential error messages.
- Updated Neutrino to version 1.6.1
- Updatec NHDDL to version MMCE + HDL Beta 4.17
- Added error message for failed repository updates

 ### Notes on APA-Jail:
-APA-Jail, created and developed by [Berion](https://www.psx-place.com/resources/authors/berion.1431/), enables the PS2's APA partitions to coexist with an exFAT partition. This setup allows PSBBN to access the first 128 GB of the HDD/SSD directly. The remaining space on the drive is formatted as an exFAT partition, which can be accessed directly on a PC and on the PS2 by the [pre-release build of Open PS2 Loader](https://github.com/ps2homebrew/Open-PS2-Loader) and [Neutrino](https://github.com/rickgaiser/neutrino). PS2 games in the `ISO` or `ZSO` format are stored on the exFAT partition.
