[NTLK] MPW simulator to run ARM6asm etc.

It can and that's how most Newton packages still under development are
programmed: using NTK under Mac OS in Sheepshaver or Bassilisk II.
However, it's still slow, cumbersome, and another set of OS & software
layers to try to maintain. By developing native tools and emulating
less & less (in this case, using ARM6asm to emulate only the
compilation), the process is made easier & more efficient for
developers on modern OSes.
