Subject: [PATCH] docs: check three cores against recalbox build

Read the cores in the Recalbox 10.1.1 x86_64 image (sha1 b3d80ff0). The
sugarbox2 core, built from the token-gated v1.5, holds the 59 blobs of the
public v0.9 RomData.cpp byte for byte and opens the same paths: only its
on-screen keyboard placement differs. eightyone and exel-hence hold every
compiled embedded array of their public tags.
