Abdessamad Derraz e7aa9e870b fix: state libretro core versions from their code
Each libretro profile records version_basis and core_version is read
there at its pin. snes9x states 1.63 in snes9x.h, nestopia 2.0.0, mgba
0.11.0, vice 3.10, atari800's libretro tree 7.0.0. Cores whose build
takes its version from git carry the nearest tag in describe form
(flycast v2.7-90-ge88b0ce, ppsspp, duckstation, gearcoleco), placeholders
copied from .info files (Git, SVN) are replaced by the code's statement,
and a code that states none is null with kind none.

Fantasy computer for making, playing and sharing tiny games.
The libretro repo wraps nesbox/TIC-80 as a submodule, and the libretro
wrapper (tic80_libretro.c) lives in the upstream repo itself.
Content loaded entirely via libretro data buffer (need_fullpath = false,
src/system/libretro/tic80_libretro.c:340). No call to RETRO_ENVIRONMENT_GET_SYSTEM_DIRECTORY.
No code path reads any file from the system directory. All VM resources
(sprites, palette, font, sound engine) are compiled into the binary.
TIC_MODULE_EXT (dynamic scripting plugins) is disabled in libretro
builds via #if !defined(__LIBRETRO__) in include/tic80_config.h:36.

source_ref: "src/system/libretro/tic80_libretro.c:339"
note: |
.tic is the native cartridge format. .png loads cartridges
encoded as cover images (code stored in PNG metadata).
runtime:
source_ref: "source .gitmodules, nesbox TIC-80 runtime (the core submodule)"
note: |
Entire runtime compiled into the binary. No external dependencies.
State serialization uses TIC_PERSISTENT_SIZE * 4 bytes of pmem()
data (src/system/libretro/tic80_libretro.c:1203-1243).
