📄 Description

Discord displays "In ShadPS4" along with elapsed time when a user is executing shadps4.exe in their computer.

The presence displays the current status of the emulator (e.g., whether shadps4.exe is running) and updates it in real-time within the Discord client. All necessary files have been moved to a presence directory to keep it organized.

Changes:

Added presence/discord.h, presence/discord.cpp, and presence/discord_rpc.h for handling Discord RPC integration.
In testing, I modified main.cpp to initialize and run Discord Presence alongside the emulator as shown below:

#include <fmt/core.h>
#include "emulator.h"
#include "presence/discord.h"

int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
    if (argc == 1) {
        fmt::print("Usage: {} <elf or eboot.bin path>\n", argv[0]);
        return -1;
    }

    Discord discord("XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX");
    discord.Initialize();

    Core::Emulator emulator;
    emulator.Run(argv[1]);

    discord.Run();
    discord.Shutdown();

    return 0;
}

Let's talk the 19 digit Discord API key "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX": I used my custom key and it worked, so the owner of the repository or someone with higher privileges needs to go to the Discord Developer Portal and get a key, I could otherwise configure this. That being said, all the functionality is there, and we are 1-key away. As for main.cpp I didn't want to mess with that directly in this merge request, therefore I am just showing what I did.

All files conform to the project's style guide:

Functions and classes follow PascalCase.
Variables follow lower_case_underscored naming.
Line width limited to 100 characters.
Used C++-style casts where needed (e.g., static_cast).
Proper namespace usage.
4-space indentation with no tabs.
