Technical notes

Old port of VICE 3.1 using an SDL-to-libretro shim (r-type/sdlvice-libretro). Separate codebase from the newer vice-libretro port. Marked experimental and superseded. Unlike the newer port, this core does NOT embed system ROMs; all ROMs must be on disk in /data/C64/ and /data/DRIVES/. The .info declares firmware_count=0 which is incorrect. No JiffyDOS support. No save states, no netplay, no cheats.
