Dolphin computes adler32 on byte-swapped (16-bit) data, not raw file bytes. Add adler32_byteswap flag to dolphin/primehack/ishiiruka profiles and support it in validation.py. Reduces hash mismatch discrepancies from 18 to 2.

bt_passthrough_note: >

Bluetooth passthrough allows connecting real Wiimotes via USB Bluetooth adapters.

Realtek chipsets require firmware files in Load/Firmware/rtl_bt/.

PrimeHack can auto-download these from kernel-firmware/linux-firmware on GitLab.
