Remove large files from main repo: Migrate `App.n64`, `App.nes`, `App.MidiFighter` to separate git repository

The following apps have some larger associated media files ( homebrew roms and large audio files ) : App.n64, App.nes, App.MidiFighter

We don't want larger non-critical apps taking up storage space in the main git repo for Buddy Pond.

This is expected. The plan here is to move these apps to a separate repo and have BP Desktop lazy load them remotely.

Is actually already solved in Desktop App on technical level.

This will be small admin change to create new repo and add new virtual host path in backend server that maps to new git repo.

Was very simple. No code change to front-end required outside of moving files to new repo.

We now have Buddy Pond AppStore which is repository for storing Buddy Apps.
