feat(roms): add romhack drop-folder importer; import 53 hacks
romhack-import.py: classifies a mixed drop folder (ROMs/patches/docs/archives), clean-names ROMs to 'Pokemon - <Hack> (Hack)', auto-detects patch base via BPS/UPS CRC, recurses zips/rar, archives patches+docs. Imported the pokemon/ drop (now gitignored) into the valhalla library + Following Renegade Platinum. Updated wanted-list for newly acquired hacks.

### Needs identification (held, not placed)
|
||||
|
||||
- **`Beta 15 + Expansion Fix Patch C.ups`** — from your drop folder; applies cleanly to **FireRed** (it's a FireRed/expansion hack) but the filename doesn't identify the hack. Tell me what it is and I'll place it as `Pokemon - <name> (Hack).gba`. Patch archived at `patches/_imported/`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Optional add-on patches (archived, not applied)
|
||||
|
||||
Inside the Sors / Saiph 2 downloads were **optional** extra IPS patches (3DS VC mode, lag-fix, vigilante mode, time-based events) meant to be layered on top of the main ROM. The main ROMs are placed; these extras are kept in `patches/_imported/` if you ever want them applied.

These are **already placed**, but newer/better builds live behind gated hosts:

- **Radical Red** — placed v4.1; latest is on the official Discord / hackdex.

- **Emerald Kaizo** — placed an archive IPS; the maintained "official" build is on Discord.
