Store Alchemist data under /switch/Alchemist (survives .packages wipe)

Point repos, pchtxts staging, contents staging, search_patterns, config,
and RELEASE metadata to /switch/Alchemist/ so OmniNX pack updates that
clear /switch/.packages/ do not remove mods or UI state. Package scripts
under .packages/Alchemist/ remain the Ultrahand entry only.

Fix truncated [*Z] section in pchtxt_cucholix.ini introduced by path edit.

- **Pchtxt Mods**: Available in [Alchemist Repos](https://github.com/ppkantorski/Alchemist-Repos). Users can download individual author packs or use the “Update All” feature within Alchemist.
- **Content Mods**: Organized by title ID in the same repositories. Use the “Install Contents” section to deploy content mods to the correct directories.
- Format for adding content mods is as follows:
- `/switch/.packages/Alchemist/contents/{TITLE_NAME} - {MOD_NAME}/{TITLE_ID}/...`
- `/switch/Alchemist/contents/{TITLE_NAME} - {MOD_NAME}/{TITLE_ID}/...`
## Installation
1. Unzip `Alchemist.zip` to the root of your SD card. The `Alchemist` folder will appear under `/switch/.packages/`.
2. Ensure that mods are organized in the `repos` subfolders as outlined above.
1. Unzip `Alchemist.zip` to the root of your SD card. The Ultrahand package lives under `/switch/.packages/Alchemist/`, while **persistent data** (repos, staging `pchtxts/` and `contents/`, `search_patterns.txt`, and `config.ini`) is stored under **`/switch/Alchemist/`** so it survives CFW pack updates that wipe `.packages`.
2. Ensure that mods are organized in `/switch/Alchemist/repos/` as outlined above (or use “Update Repos” in the package).
3. Use the package menus to manage, convert, or install mods as needed.
