Add a Winnitron tag

Winnitron is an arcade cabinet with indie games on it. The computers inside are Windows based, the original oldest models run Windows 7. Inputs use the keyboard for 1 joystick and 2 buttons for up to 4 players (arrows .,) (wasd12) There is a wiki if you want more details: https://github.com/winnitron/WinnitronLauncher/wiki/Requirements-for-Winnitron-Games

Anyway, there was a Launcher that automatically downloaded approved games and apparently the network is down now and I said “why don’t we just use itch for this?” but we need a way to tag games that are compatible. I only really care about the control scheme being consistent so it works with the controls already installed on a fleet of cabinets. Obviously in 2025 we could stand to update the other stuff, run games on a Pi, etc. The core ask here is just a way to say “this will work on winnitron cabs.” In the short term, I’ll propose using a private collection but an open tag anyone can use would be neat
