Replace the batocera-wine by native python code. implement some parts of batocera-wine in wine python utils - dxvk deploy - bottle create - autorun.cmd parsing - add .squahsfs support with writable overlay, as we currently updating the mugen.cfg for resolution,control,.. - also add openal tricks needed by some mugen games launching/closing: - hotkey exit is using `winserver -k' to correct close mugen.exe and wine server. - the shutdown is a Generator.running() context manager wrapping the run of the command: wine hands the game over to the wineserver and exits long before the game does, so the rom is only released once `wineserver -w` has returned (falling back to `-k` on timeout) and whatever still holds the prefix has been killed. Being a context manager, it also runs when the emulator is killed rather than closed, which a wrapper around the command could not do.

Ikemen engine code is pretty unstable, and each game can run different engine version. Some games are provided both ikemen linux bin && windows .exe, some other notes. This patch try to run game in order: 1) check if autorun.cmd is present -> launch game with wine 2) check if Ikemen_GO_Linux if present in game directory -> launch game with provided linux bin 3) Launch game with batocera system ikemen The .pc extension with wine was never implemented in generator and was not working. This patch add also support for .squashfs, and config.ini for newer ikemen versions This patch depend of batocera-linux#16094 for wine code

Replace the batocera-wine by native python code.
implement some parts of batocera-wine in wine python utils
dxvk deploy
bottle create
autorun.cmd parsing
add .squahsfs support with writable overlay, as we currently updating the mugen.cfg for resolution,control,..
also add openal tricks needed by some mugen games
launching/closing:
hotkey exit is using `winserver -k' to correct close mugen.exe and wine server.
wineserver -wis used in the launch command , to correctly wait wineserver closing and child process are killed on exit before umounting the .squasfs overlay
