Third console lands: SNES via snes9x.

Highlights

  • SNES support — bundled snes9x_libretro.so, runtime auto-picks
    the core from the ROM extension (.sfc, .smc, .swc, .fig). `retrokix
    browse` shows a third console badge color (amber #f59e0b) and
    merges 4,122 No-Intro SNES entries + 51,561 cheats into the
    unified library.
  • ~50 SNES classics added to the default browse cohort: Super
    Mario World, A Link to the Past, Super Metroid, Chrono Trigger,
    FFVI, Earthbound, Mega Man X 1-3, DKC 1-3, Star Fox, Castlevania
    IV, Contra III, Killer Instinct, Secret of Mana, Seiken Densetsu
    3, and more.

Upgrade path

```
pip install -U retrokix
retrokix download "super mario world"
retrokix play "mario world"
```

Coming next

A snapshot extension refresh is running in the background; the
top-100 marquee on apiad.github.io/retrokix will reshuffle to
include SNES titles once the Wikipedia-pageviews snapshot is
republished (couple of hours).
