Abdessamad Derraz 58f3006d20 docs: add core_version, display_name to all 260 emulator profiles
Every profile now has:
- profiled_date: date of source code analysis
- core_version: version from libretro-core-info .info files
- display_name: human-readable name from .info files

260/260 profiles complete. 294/294 libretro cores covered.
Standalone emulators (cemu, rpcs3, xemu, vita3k) versioned manually.

emulator: Beetle PSX (Mednafen PSX)
type: libretro
source: "https://github.com/libretro/beetle-psx-libretro"
profiled_date: "2026-03-18"
core_version: "v0.9.44.1"
display_name: "Sony - PlayStation (Beetle PSX)"
cores: [mednafen_psx, mednafen_psx_hw]

bios_size: 524288 # 512 KB for all accepted BIOS images
verification: sha1
notes: >
Region-based BIOS selection: the core picks JP/NA/EU firmware based on disc region.
SHA1 validated with warning on mismatch (does not block loading).
Override option allows using PSP or PS3 extracted PS1 BIOS as region-free alternative.
"Skip BIOS" option exists but causes compatibility issues (PAL copy protection, Saga Frontier).
Alternate filenames are case variants and model aliases for the same image.
Comment in source references MAME psx.cpp as hash source.
