Abdessamad Derraz c1a942ad31 feat: cite a folder for every handheld row
Allium, JELOS, KOLOS and MiyooCFW folders come from their own trees at the revision the installer reads. Rows with no cited folder point at RetroArch's System/BIOS setting, and a folder only Linux reads says so. KNULLI's SAMBA switch is linked, AmberELEC's roms share is named, the MinUI family says the command makes each folder, and an iPhone and iPad tile joins the handheld group.

Abdessamad Derraz add2d87190 feat: cite the handheld systems that run retroarch
One row per system the installer detects RetroArch on, with the card folder and the devices each system's own pages list, every value carrying its source. Android and Linux handhelds become tiles of the handheld group.

Abdessamad Derraz d2974660eb refactor: emit site blocks through sitemarkup
Callouts, collapsible blocks, tabs, buttons, card grids and search
exclusion go through one module that writes the engine's syntax. The
MkDocs output is unchanged apart from whitespace-only lines.

Abdessamad Derraz be3324f869 feat: read guides and wiki nav from data
Platform guides, device groups, terminal tabs, pack README manuals and
logo credits move from Python tables to platforms/_guides.yml, checked
against the registry on load. A folder row without a path is the
registry's extract_to, written once.

Wiki pages place themselves in the navigation with order and nav_title
in their front matter. Generated docs/ and mkdocs.yml are unchanged.

Abdessamad Derraz 70d761682c docs: plain copy on the newcomer pages
The Start here pages ran 460 to 2,100 words and the first command of
Get your files sat 254 words down. Each page now opens on its action,
with short sentences and one fact per block. The facts a newcomer does
not act on moved one level down: the legal analysis to wiki/legal.md,
the project terms to wiki/reference-terms.md, the annotated run and the
installer failures to the installer page, collection figures to a new
Explore index.

tests/test_site_copy.py holds the budgets on the generated pages, and
the testing guide states them with their reasons.

Four statements the repository contradicts are rewritten: prboom.wad
is compiled into PrBoom (emulators/prboom.yml), Batocera reports a
mismatch as UNTESTED (batocera-systems checkBios), 13 hle_fallback
entries are required, and the gaps headline splits missing firmware
from game data and unread entries.

Abdessamad Derraz 468b5e1d3e feat: keep a replaced BIOS file beside its folder
A file in place whose contents differ (another revision, a personal
dump) was overwritten and lost. It is now moved to
retrobios-backup/<date-time>/ beside the folder written to, under the
same path, before the verified copy replaces it. Beside, not inside:
DuckStation, SwanStation and Rustation read every file of the BIOS
folder and BizHawk walks its firmware folder recursively.

Identical files are never kept. --dry-run counts what would be kept,
the summary and the summary event name the folder, files and bytes,
and --restore FOLDER puts the files back. Data trees and standalone
copies keep their replaced files the same way.

Abdessamad Derraz 533b85586f feat: group platforms by the device they run on
device_group in the registry places each platform on the device picker, in the navigation and on the home page. scripts/siteguides.py holds the guide text per platform: what it is, its BIOS folder, where the install command runs.
