Abdessamad Derraz 11da070128 chore: recale the profile refs onto their pins
Upstream moved under 145 profiles: 679 refs shifted and 452 followed a
renamed file, against 6,483 that still anchor where they were written.
The recale rewrites the located ranges only, keeping the annotations and
the sentences that carry them, and 106 pins advance in the same commit
because refs and source_commit name one revision or the profile
describes two at once.

Nothing here was guessed. The 183 refs that are CHANGED, GONE or
AMBIGUOUS are untouched, and the 57 profiles holding them keep their old
pin until someone reads the diff: profile_sync refuses to recale a
profile while any of its refs needs a re-read. trident kept its pin too,
its annotated ref being one the writer will not rewrite.

notes: |
Open-source Sega Model 3 arcade emulator by Bart Trzynadlowski (trzy) and
contributors, under GPL-3.0. Emulates all three Model 3 steppings (1.0, 1.5,
2.0/2.1) including Real3D graphics, SCSP sound, DSB1/DSB2 MPEG music boards,
drive boards, and net board. Cross-platform (Windows, Linux, macOS).
Uses MAME-compatible ROM sets loaded from ZIP archives. GameLoader identifies
games by CRC32 checksums defined in Config/Games.xml. Parent/child ROM set
relationships exist between regional variants of the same game, not as shared
BIOS sets. No standalone BIOS or firmware files are loaded outside of game ZIPs.
EmuDeck installs the Flatpak package (com.supermodel3.Supermodel). Config
stored in ~/.supermodel/Config/. No checkBIOS entry in EmuDeck.
Four data files of its own are read from the install tree, Config/ and Assets/
relative to the working directory on Windows and macOS, under the home
directory on Linux. Supermodel.ini, NVRAM/<game>.nv and Saves/<game>.st<slot>
are written by the emulator itself.

exclusion_note: >
The Sega Model 3 arcade hardware has no shared system BIOS. Each game board
contains its own program ROMs (CROM), video ROMs (VROM), sound program, sound
samples, and optional DSB/drive board ROMs, all contained within per-game
MAME-format ZIP archives. Supermodel loads all required data from these game
ZIPs via CRC32-based identification defined in Games.xml. The files listed
above are the emulator's own data, not system ROMs.
