Abdessamad Derraz e13e8734b9 chore: standardize notes: to note: in file entries
240 file-level entries used notes: instead of the canonical note:
field. verify.py and cross_reference.py only read note:, so these
were silently ignored.

notes: |
GBA emulator by Philippe Daouadi (2009-2011), libretro port by
Hans-Kristian Arntzen. HLE BIOS in ameteor/source/bios.cpp handles
SWI calls via Cpu::SoftwareInterrupt() when HasBios() is false
(ameteor/source/cpu.cpp:245-311). The libretro port never calls
LoadBios() and never queries RETRO_ENVIRONMENT_GET_SYSTEM_DIRECTORY.
Standalone frontends (GTK, text) support optional real BIOS loading.

note: |
Full HLE BIOS. The libretro port never loads an external BIOS file.
Cpu::SoftwareInterrupt() checks HasBios() — if false (always in
libretro), SWI calls are routed to C++ reimplementations.
