Add the digital interface, running MMTTY under Wine

MMTTY and 2Tone have no socket or pipe interface: N1MM hosts XMMT.ocx and
exchanges window messages with the engine. A Linux process cannot load that
control, so bridge/nonemm-mmtty-bridge.exe hosts it under Wine and passes
lines over its standard input and output. docs/digital-bridge.md states the
protocol and what the control needs.

The window is N1MM's: receive pane with coloured callsigns, grab list, call
stacking, twenty-four macro buttons and the engine controls. One left click
copies what is under it — a callsign to the callsign box, anything else to the
exchange box the contest keeps for that kind of value.

Config > Digital registers XMMT.ocx in the Wine prefix on its own, making the
prefix first if it is not there. The engine, the bridge and the control start
at the copies shipped beside the program.

The bridge reads the control's own events. OnTranslateMessage carries only the
messages the control has no event for, so nothing was ever decoded through it.

hamlib's data mode names read as digital modes now, and a mode typed into the
callsign box changes mode the way a frequency changes band, so a station with
no radio can reach RTTY at all.

## Half-built
**The digital window: what N1MM has and this does not.** The window is here —
receive pane, coloured callsigns, grab list, call stacking, twenty-four macro
buttons, the engine controls — and the function keys, ESM and the QTC window
send through the engine on a digital mode. Left out: the waterfall, the spectrum
and the XY scope, which the engine reports and nothing draws; more than one
receive pane, which is MMVARI's multi-channel decoding rather than MMTTY's;
sending a text file; and N1MM's Send All, which keys a whole QTC series at once.
The other interfaces N1MM offers — fldigi, MMVARI, the hardware TNCs — are not
here either, though `DigitalEngine` is the place to add them.
**Voice keying.** `MessageSender` was written to cover a voice keyer playing a
recording, and nothing implements it. No DVK support either, so the second radio
of an SO2R station cannot call CQ by voice. Alternating CQ therefore works on CW
