macOS: auto-discover bundled MoltenVK on startup

Browse Source 
On macOS the Vulkan loader comes from MoltenVK. SDL's default
probe only searches system paths, so a bundled libMoltenVK.dylib
next to the executable is invisible under the hardened runtime.

Probe it explicitly via SDL_GetBasePath() before falling back to
SDL's default search. Respect SDL_VULKAN_LIBRARY overrides and
log which loader is used. Update README to reflect that no
environment variable is required for bundled builds.

On macOS, point SDL at the MoltenVK library explicitly; the hardened runtime prevents it from
being picked up from the executable's directory:
On macOS, a bundled `libMoltenVK.dylib` next to `kyty_emulator` is found automatically; no
environment variable is required:
```bash
cd _Build/macos/install
SDL_VULKAN_LIBRARY="$PWD/libMoltenVK.dylib" ./kyty_emulator --game "/games/ExampleGame"
./_Build/macos/install/kyty_emulator --game "/games/ExampleGame"
```
To override the Vulkan loader, set `SDL_VULKAN_LIBRARY`:
```bash
SDL_VULKAN_LIBRARY=/path/to/libMoltenVK.dylib ./kyty_emulator --game "/games/ExampleGame"
```
Run `kyty_emulator --help` to see the available graphics, logging, validation, profiling, and
