Abdessamad Derraz 58f3006d20 docs: add core_version, display_name to all 260 emulator profiles
Every profile now has:
- profiled_date: date of source code analysis
- core_version: version from libretro-core-info .info files
- display_name: human-readable name from .info files

260/260 profiles complete. 294/294 libretro cores covered.
Standalone emulators (cemu, rpcs3, xemu, vita3k) versioned manually.

notes: |
Caprice32 is an Amstrad CPC emulator ported to libretro. Supports CPC 464,
CPC 664, CPC 6128, and CPC+ (Plus) models.
All system ROMs are compiled directly into the core binary as C header
arrays in cap32/rom/*.h. No external BIOS files are required.
Embedded ROMs (cap32/cap32.c:342-345):
- cap32/rom/464.h: OS_BASIC10[32768] - CPC 464 OS + BASIC 1.0
- cap32/rom/6128.h: OS_BASIC11[32768] - CPC 6128 OS + BASIC 1.1
- cap32/rom/amsdos.h: AMSDOS[16384] - AMSDOS disk controller ROM
- cap32/rom/6128p.h: OS_6128P - CPC+ system cartridge ROM
- cap32/rom/cpm.h: cpmROM - CP/M boot snapshot (128KB)
ROM selection in emulator_select_ROM() (cap32/cap32.c:1072-1100):
- CPC 464: OS_BASIC10 (32KB)
- CPC 664: OS_BASIC10 (32KB) + AMSDOS in slot 7
- CPC 6128: OS_BASIC11 (32KB) + AMSDOS in slot 7
- CPC+: OS_6128P loaded as system cartridge via cpr_load()
The standalone (non-libretro) version references external filenames
cpc464.rom, cpc664.rom, cpc6128.rom, amsdos.rom in cap32.c:349-352
via config file loading (cap32.c:1828-1840), but the libretro port
does not use this path. The libretro init (libretro-core.c:1512) has
a "TODO: future use to load custom bios" comment that is not
implemented.
Keyboard layout patches are applied to the ROM in memory for French
and Spanish layouts via rom_mods.h (cap32.c:1102-1126).
CP/M support loads a pre-built snapshot (cpm.h) into memory via
snapshot_load_mem() in slots.c:87.

notes: |
All ROMs are embedded. emulator_select_ROM() copies the appropriate
ROM array into the pbROM buffer based on CPC.model. No filesystem
lookup occurs in the libretro port. The retro_system_bios_directory
variable is set up in libretro-core.c:1499-1510 but only used for
a future custom BIOS feature that is not yet implemented.

5 ROM sets embedded as C arrays:
OS_BASIC10 (32KB) - CPC 464/664 OS + BASIC 1.0
OS_BASIC11 (32KB) - CPC 6128 OS + BASIC 1.1
AMSDOS (16KB) - Disk controller ROM, mapped to slot 7
OS_6128P - CPC+ system cartridge (White Label cartridge)
cpmROM (128KB+) - CP/M boot snapshot including SNA header

CPC 464: OS_BASIC10 only (no disk support)
CPC 664: OS_BASIC10 + AMSDOS in ROM slot 7
CPC 6128: OS_BASIC11 + AMSDOS in ROM slot 7
CPC+: 6128P system cartridge (or user-provided .cpr file)
