Abdessamad Derraz d929424988 feat: add profiled_date to all YAMLs, create 56 alias profiles
- Added profiled_date field to all 204 existing profiles for update tracking
- Created 56 alias profiles for cores that share BIOS with a parent
  (e.g., mednafen_psx -> beetle_psx, fbalpha2012 -> fbneo)

260 total profiles covering all 294 libretro cores (204 unique + 56 alias).

# Uzem emulates the Uzebox, an open-source 8-bit game console based on an
# ATmega644 AVR microcontroller. The console was designed by Alec Bourque (Uze)
# and all hardware/software is open-source.
#
# No BIOS or firmware files are required. The core loads .uze ROM files directly
# into progmem (uzem_libretro.cpp:254-286). The .uze format includes a "UZEBOX"
# magic header followed by a RomHeader struct (uzerom.h) and raw program data.
#
# The standalone uzem (oldsrcs/uzem.cpp:90) has a --boot flag that sets PC to
# 0xF000 for bootloader mode, but this is NOT exposed in the libretro port.
# The libretro core has no retro_environment calls for RETRO_ENVIRONMENT_SET_SYSTEM_DIR
# or any firmware loading paths.
#
# SD card emulation uses RETRO_ENVIRONMENT_GET_CORE_ASSETS_DIRECTORY
# (uzem_libretro.cpp:186-192) for virtual FAT16 filesystem access via SDEmulator.cpp,
# but this is optional game data, not system firmware.
#
# The .info file declares no firmware entries.

notes:
open_source_console: >
The Uzebox is fully open-source hardware and software. There is no proprietary
BIOS or bootloader required. Games are self-contained .uze files that include
all code needed to run on the ATmega644 MCU emulation.
sd_card: >
Some games use SD card access for loading assets. The core reads from the
libretro core assets directory to emulate a FAT16 SD card, but this is game
data, not system firmware.
standalone_bootloader: >
The original standalone uzem supports a --boot flag for bootloader mode
(PC starts at 0xF000 instead of 0x0000). This feature is not available in
the libretro port.
