- fix batocera_scraper brace counting and escaped quotes in strings
- fix emudeck_scraper hash search crossing function boundaries
- fix pipeline.py cwd to repo root via Path(__file__)
- normalize SHA1 comparison to lowercase in generate_pack

Emulator profiles:
- emux_gb/nes/sms: reclassify from alias to standalone profiles

notes: |
Frozen snapshot of Final Burn Alpha v0.2.97.29 (circa 2012), CPS-3 only.
NOT an alias of FBNeo — different codebase, different ROM set compatibility.
Exists for RAM-constrained platforms. Most users should use FBNeo.
CPS-3 uses a Hitachi SH-2 CPU with per-game, per-region BIOS ROMs.
Each BIOS is a 512 KB (0x080000) 29F400 flash chip dump, region-locked.
BIOS ROMs are marked BRF_ESS | BRF_BIOS in the ROM definitions.
BIOS is loaded into RomBios (cps3run.cpp:1048-1064), byte-swapped to
little-endian, then decrypted via cps3_decrypt_bios() (cps3run.cpp:255).
The SH-2 boots from BIOS, which initializes hardware and loads the game
program from simulated flash/CD-ROM.
BIOS files are INSIDE the game ROM set ZIP (arcade standard), not separate
system directory files. Each game variant has its own region BIOS.
Unique BIOS ROMs across all ROM sets (CRC32 from source):
