Technical notes

Frozen snapshot of Stella 3.9.3. The Atari 2600 has no BIOS ROM; the TIA, RIOT, and 6507 CPU are fully emulated in software. The SuperCharger (Starpath) BIOS is emulated via a built-in dummy ROM (ourDummyROMCode in CartAR.cxx:518). Game properties database (stella.pro) is compiled into DefProps.hxx; external loading is disabled in the libretro port (PropsSet.cxx:35). The core does not call GET_SYSTEM_DIRECTORY. KidVid Voice Module audio tapes (7 WAV files) are loaded via rfopen with relative filenames from the content directory (KidVid.cxx:166-185); absence is handled gracefully. EEPROM save data for AtariVox and SaveKey peripherals is managed as NVRAM, not user-supplied.
