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: |
Full HLE BIOS for ARM9, ARM7 and GBA SWI routines (hle_bios.cpp:24-60).
All BIOS files optional when direct boot is enabled (default). When missing,
HLE handler activated via special opcode at offset 3 (memory.cpp:139-168).
Firmware auto-generated (128KB non-bootable) if not provided, with default
WiFi config, touch calibration and user settings (spi.cpp:90-160). Native
BIOS+firmware required only for firmware boot (non-direct-boot mode).
Bootable firmware threshold: >128KB (spi.cpp:87). DLDI patching provides
SD card access for homebrew via nds_sd_card.bin (dldi.cpp:29-77).
File loading code identical between upstream and libretro port.
