Abdessamad Derraz 3199bc2a55 fix: state standalone versions from their code
Each standalone profile records where its version is read: the source
at its pin (clk 2026-07-23-136-g9020107, shadps4 0.20.1 WIP, eden
v0.2.0-401-g26a03d2), the APK, binary or archive read (kind package),
or, where no reading can be made, kind unverified with the reason: a
host the tools cannot read, a forge gone or not answering, no build
recorded as read, a pin on another branch. Those keep their value,
unconfirmed.

notes: |
Mega Drive emulator for SDL by Joe Groff and Phil K. Hornung, carried on by
zamaz. Release 1.33 is the v1.33 tag of the project's git tree. It emulates
the 68000, the Z80, the VDP, the YM2612 and the SN76489 and nothing more: the
tree holds no SH-2, no Sega CD hardware and no TMSS boot ROM.
A cartridge is opened as given, then under the roms subdirectory of the DGen
home ($HOME/.dgen), or under str_rom_path when the configuration sets one. It
is unpacked through libarchive when compressed, de-interleaved when it is an
SMD dump, and refused unless "SEGA" stands at offset 0x100.
ref: romload.c:14-19,47-124, system.c:293-340, system.h:23-24, rc.cpp:554-560
The only other files read are dgenrc, save states, battery RAM and demos,
all written by the emulator itself under the DGen home.

exclusion_note: >
Nothing to obtain. No BIOS or firmware is opened. The RetroPie scriptmodule
help asks for bios_CD_U.bin, bios_CD_E.bin and bios_CD_J.bin, but no code
path of this release names them, and a Sega CD image is refused by the
"SEGA" header test.
