Abdessamad Derraz b3b3880c19 chore: say which repository each source_ref cites
Profiles that read two repositories, a libretro port and its upstream,
now prefix each citation with source or upstream, decided by which tree
carries the cited value at its pin. The emulator pages use the word to
tell libretro glue, emulator code as the port carries it, and the
upstream emulator apart.

notes: |
The Raspberry Pi Foundation's ioquake3 1.35 snapshot with an OpenGL ES
renderer for the VideoCore GPU (VERSION=1.35, Makefile:194). RetroPie
builds it with build_rpi_raspbian.sh and installs ioquake3.arm and
ioq3ded.arm, then links $md_inst/baseq3 to $romdir/ports/quake3.
BASEGAME = "baseq3" (code/qcommon/q_shared.h:37). fs_basepath defaults to
the directory of the binary (code/sys/sys_main.c:474-479, 574), and
FS_Startup mounts baseq3 under fs_basepath and fs_homepath (~/.q3a),
then fs_game when set (code/qcommon/files.c:2762-2773, 2785-2787).
FS_CheckPak0 compares the pak checksum of baseq3/pak0.pk3 through
pak8.pk3 to pak_checksums[] (code/qcommon/files.c:178-188, 2886-2910).
This snapshot predates the Team Arena checksums: missionpack is only
an ordinary mod directory here. A mismatch prints a warning and the pak
stays mounted. A missing pak prints a message too, but the fatal error
that follows is commented out (code/qcommon/files.c:2918-2943), so the
point release paks are optional. What stops the engine is a missing
default.cfg (code/qcommon/files.c:3328-3329), which only pak0.pk3
carries.
demoq3/pak0.pk3 with DEMO_PAK0_CHECKSUM is recognised and printed as a
demo pak (code/qcommon/files.c:177, 2870-2884). RetroPie instead
extracts its Q3DemoPaks.zip, the demo pak0.pk3 with the 1.32 point
release paks, flat into baseq3/. The demo pak then fails the pak0
checksum with a warning and runs.
