Add DirectX SDK (D3DX9) download support

download --with-dxsdk fetches the DirectX SDK (June 2010) - the last
standalone release of D3DX9/10/11, XInput and XAudio2, dropped from
the Windows SDK entirely once D3DX was deprecated, but still needed
by plenty of legacy code. Like the WDK, it isn't part of the VS
installer manifest, so this is its own self-contained fetch+unpack
path: the installer is a self-extracting CAB, unpacked directly via
cabextract (already a prerequisite for the WinSDK .msi payloads) with
its -F filter restricting extraction to just Include/ and Lib/ -
about 21MB out of the installer's 1.2GB uncompressed payload.

Verified against the real installer: real d3dx9.h and d3dx9.lib
(x86 and x64) extracted correctly and linked into an actual legacy
game client build.

// The DirectX SDK (June 2010) is the last standalone release of D3DX9 (and
// D3DX10/11, XInput, XAudio2, ...). Microsoft never carried D3DX forward
// into the Windows 10/11 SDK - it's deprecated in favor of D3DCompiler/
// WICTextureLoader/DirectXTex, but plenty of legacy code (this included)
// still links against the real d3dx9.h/d3dx9.lib. Like the WDK (see
// wdk.go), it isn't part of the VS installer manifest or any package feed
// vsman knows about, so this is a separate, self-contained download path
// outside ExpandSelection/FetchPayloads/UnpackSelectedPackages.
//
// The installer is a self-extracting PE with an appended CAB archive.
// cabextract (already a vintner prerequisite - see runMsiExtract's sibling
// extractWindowsSDKPackage) unpacks it directly, without needing Wine or a
// separate archive tool. Its -F/--filter flag (repeatable) restricts
// extraction to the Include and Lib subtrees actually needed for building -
// about 21MB out of the installer's 1.2GB uncompressed payload.

// dxsdkSHA256 pins the exact installer build this code was written against
// (verified by fully extracting it with both cabextract and 7z and cross
// checking the file lists) - the June 2010 DirectX SDK is a frozen legacy
// artifact Microsoft is not going to rebuild. A var, not a const, so tests
// can point it at a small fake payload instead of the real 600MB installer.
