This pull request adds the detection of the following BAT to PE-EXE compilers:

These programs are not strictly compilers, they are quite difficult to categorise. They never compile the BAT to a VM or intermediate language, but rather the store the script file in the executable file (resources, read-only data, overlay, etc.) and execute them (by either dropping them to a file or seldomly directly from memory).

If required, I could change their categorization from Compiler to Packer, despite the fact they rarely use compression on the batch files.

The corresponding tests have been added to retdec-regression-tests.

It's a simple BAT to PE-EXE script compiler from the German company F2KO.
It is yet another BAT to PE-EXE script compiler.
It is a discontinued but still prevalent BAT script compiler to EXE form.

The current categorization is fine by me. Thank you for adding the detection 👍

All tests are passing, so I am merging this.
