Subject: [PATCH] feat: separate frozen snapshot profiles, fix shared cores

Created desmume2015.yml with files: [] (code doesn't load BIOS).
Removed desmume2015 from desmume.yml cores list.
Removed cdi2015 from same_cdi.yml (separate profile exists).

Frozen snapshots must have their own profiles because their
firmware behavior differs from the current version.

+  Frozen 2015 snapshot of DeSmuME. The external BIOS loading feature
+  (desmume_use_external_bios) does NOT exist in this version.
+  The .info declares firmware_count=3 but the code never loads them.
+  Verified: libretro.cpp has no bios7/bios9/firmware path construction.
