📄 Description

We need to initialize the patch stack first as there may be a custom heap API configured that uses patched instructions, which would crash when trying to allocate TLS memory.

Fixes https://github.com/shadps4-emu/shadPS4/issues/667. I tested one of the affected games and it is now working again.
