Abdessamad Derraz e5cd024e2e fix: settle the round 4 site merge
Root pages nothing produced are swept, so a table moved to a platform page no longer keeps the address its redirect needs. Data tree pages name their readers, board crumbs end on the Arcade page once, fba2012 is headed FB Alpha 2012, test profiles get no page, and the installer glance lists --declared-only and --offline. sitesources.py goes through run_cli.

Abdessamad Derraz 3db3949006 docs: say where the handheld files come from
The archives ship with the next release, and build_port.py writes them
until then. muOS points to the muxapp and to /mnt/mmc, and the quit combo
reads Select first.

Abdessamad Derraz ba3d519189 docs: explain setups without a ZIP
FAQ entry, the release_pack field and how to revisit it from download
counts, the get/ pages, and RetroPie 4.8 now installs from a computer with
the Pi's network folder as --dest. The start pages are back under their
word ceilings.

Abdessamad Derraz 801a0150e6 feat: run the handheld launchers in the tui
The PortMaster port now starts install.py --tui on the console (or in
foot or xterm under a compositor), with gptokeyb in kill mode on the
installer's path, retrobios.gptk, TERM=linux and a Terminus font, and
puts the console, font and mapper back on exit. pugwash screens stay as
the fallback where no terminal can show, and start in no-check mode so
PortMaster's A/B fix applies. Without a network, every launcher installs
from a pack found on the card or names the pack and the folder.

Adds launchers for Batocera and Knulli (Ports, evmapy .keys), muOS
(.muxapp in muxterm with gptokeyb2) and the Tools menu of ArkOS,
dArkOS, ROCKNIX, JELOS and AmberELEC, built by build_port.py with the
pinned installer and tested on a simulated device.

Abdessamad Derraz c6fc0a3a61 feat: add full-screen installer interface
A bare install at a terminal of 40x12 or more opens a full screen that a
keyboard or a controller mapped to keys drives: setup, plan, install in
three presses, systems, regions, cores, game data, folder browser and a
dry-run preview one press away. The installer runs itself as a child with
--events for every check and install, the file list fetched once and
handed over with --manifest. --tui asks for it, --plain, RETROBIOS_PLAIN
and ACCESSIBLE keep the line questions.

Abdessamad Derraz 15f69a2212 chore: file QEMU, Roland, Chihiro and Oric
QEMU's 79 files go to QEMU/QEMU and Roland's four loose ROMs to MT-32
and CM-32L. The mt32-roms, soundcanvas-roms and sounddata trees stay as
the code addresses them. Chihiro joins Sega and the Oric joins
Tangerine, the names the site and libretro already use. No destination
held other bytes.

The three QEMU EDK2 images are release assets, and their .gitignore
lines follow them. Database and manifests are regenerated together.
verify --all and cross_reference give the same output once moved paths
are mapped.

Abdessamad Derraz f5eb31f910 feat: system sections start with their own files
The start line keeps entries read for the section's own system, groups a section holding several, names files the way most setups do, links an Arcade-filed set the system requires and says when no file is needed. Cards of MAME and FBNeo sets name the releases whose recipe matches their members. Console headings lose their icon, Arcade gets its own group on the index, and install boxes count toward the weight that splits a heavy manufacturer page.

Abdessamad Derraz 1e5e795060 feat: say what each emulator page needs first
Romset row and line on MAME and FinalBurn pages, files an app ships
under their own badge and section, collection counts under the table,
empty or constant summary columns dropped, short hashes with the full
value in the title, the profile card and cards past Required folded,
data directory pages kept out of the search.

Abdessamad Derraz aac613bea7 feat: answer version and handheld questions

Get your files folds its tables into one closed block with part buttons. The setup comparison moves to the verification modes page. New Linux handhelds guide page.

Abdessamad Derraz 2b64eaab9b feat: publish manifests, id indexes and licence
The CSV and SQLite carry zipped_file and the Recalbox flags, contracts

carries commit, lookup URLs are site-absolute, systems.json and
cores.json answer an id, the Data page shows the manifest fields and a
folder check, and platform overviews link emulators by name.

Abdessamad Derraz 3de2d52629 chore: one folder per console
DS and DSi split into Nintendo DS and Nintendo DSi. 64DD, Mega-CD,
ZXSpectrum, VSmile, BBC and Game Engines/DOOM merge into the folder
of the same console. Same-named dumps with other bytes are kept:
BBC Micro's earlier zips in .variants/, the vsmilem set in vsmilem/,
the Doom II 1.666 IWAD in v1.666/, BizHawk's DSi firmware in bizhawk/.
Galaksija and Vircon get a console folder, sdlpal's desc.dat joins
its tree, VICE's PET and CBM-II ROMs leave C128 with their vice/ tail.

Database and manifests regenerated together. Verify and cross
reference give the same result once moved paths are mapped.

Abdessamad Derraz fad947e9d0 feat: link system ids to their files' section
A reviewed SYSTEM_PARENTS table leads variants (WonderSwan Color, Neo Geo MVS, MSX2) to the section holding their files, an Arcade heading that reads the name exactly is accepted, and system_search_aliases() gives the platforms' native ids for search. 260 of 636 ids linked before, 338 after.

Abdessamad Derraz 0b4504992b feat: read batocera md5 written as a list
batocera.linux 6b08b873 lets a biosFiles item declare its md5 as a
list of strings, and checkBios accepts a file matching any of them.
The scrapers join the values with commas, as for Recalbox, and record
md5_list so the export writes the list back as a list, byte for byte.

Abdessamad Derraz a3597cc8af chore: gate the second site round

links, the getting-started redirect, Served by in existence mode).

Abdessamad Derraz aaabea8bd5 feat: explain check refusals, install offline
--check names why each flagged file is refused and where each core
opens it, and names a pack part missing from the folder from the
markers split_pack writes. --from-pack installs from a downloaded
pack or its parts with no network request, --manifest reads a saved
file list, both checking every hash. The end of a run names the
system or core that pulls most of the download when narrowing saves
over half.
