Tidewater 0.7.0

The PS Vita build is experimental. tidewater-0.7.0-vita.vpk has only been run in the Vita3K emulator, where it reaches the first-run screen. It has never run on a real Vita, no game has been played on it, and its controls and speed are untested. It needs custom firmware (HENkaku or Ensō). Expect it not to work; reports are welcome.

Fixes

• link CoreBluetooth for SDL's controller drivers
