Abdessamad Derraz 71b127efb5 feat: 4-source verified emulator profiles (A-E cores)
33 emulator profiles created or updated with systematic
verification against libretro docs, .info, core source,
and original emulator source code.

New profiles: bsnes-jg, bsnes2014, bsnes_cplusplus98,
bsnes_hd_beta, bsnes_mercury, citra2018, citra_canary.

Key fixes:
- dosbox_svn/svn_ce: not aliases of dosbox_core (no MUNT)
- beetle_psx: alt_names renamed to aliases (field bug)
- dolphin: added 15 Realtek BT firmware for Wiimote passthrough
- dosbox_core: added CM-32LN, 13 split ROM pairs for standalone
- duckstation: type standalone+libretro, 106 BIOS verified
- snes9x/np2kai: formal aliases for alternate filenames

notes: |
bsnes C++98 is bsnes v085 downgraded to C++98 for old compilers.
Performance profile only. is_experimental=true.
Firmware loading differs from newer bsnes versions:
- NEC DSP (dsp1/2/3/4) and Hitachi DSP (cx4) firmware loaded from
the SAME DIRECTORY as the ROM, not from system_dir.
- Path: dir(interface->path(Slot::Base, ".dsp")) + firmware_name
ref: snes/cartridge/markup.cpp:231
- interface->path() returns basename + hint
ref: snes/libretro/libretro.cpp path() method
- Firmware name comes from the game's XML/BML markup (root["firmware"])
NOT fixed names like dsp1.program.rom
- Files are COMBINED (program+data in one file), not split
ref: snes/cartridge/markup.cpp:243-244 reads promsize*3 + dromsize*2
.info has firmware_count=0 because firmware is loaded from ROM dir,
not from system_dir — RetroArch can't pre-populate them.
The core warns "NEC DSP firmware X is missing" if not found but
continues without the coprocessor (games using it won't work).
