Nvlax can no longer be built because Zydis has made breaking changes

[tytan652]

Zydis as introduces breaking changes that prevent nvlax from being compiled.

For the time being, you could use CPMAddPackage("gh:zyantific/zydis#55dd08c210722aed81b38132f5fd4a04ec1943b5") or CPMAddPackage("gh:zyantific/zydis#v3.2.1") with some regression changes needed, rather than CPMAddPackage("gh:zyantific/zydis#master") or make the needed changes to nvlax.

Can confirm editing CMakeLists.txt with

CPMAddPackage("gh:zyantific/zydis#55dd08c210722aed81b38132f5fd4a04ec1943b5")

on line 19 allows the project to build.

Please @gardotd426 provide a PR to update the master. Then almost until someone will update the code the tool will compile.
Thank you for the tip!

This occurs both with any nvlax AUR package/utility and compiling directly from source with the patch in the PR above.
Edit: made a separate issue for this: #16
