 * PS5 RetroArch - the frontend picker: RetroArch or EmulationStation, in Gloss.

 *
 * The title's pre-screen (docs/FRONTENDS.md). It is a program of PS5_VulkanTemplate's
 * UI module (BlackBearReloaded's kit, drawn with Vulkan), built into its own
 * executable, /app0/picker/picker.bin, by tools/build-picker.sh; eboot.bin starts it
 * through LoadExec when the title is launched from the home screen. It always wears
 * the kit's "gloss" theme (Gloss, Skeuomorphic), whatever theme the kit would pick.
 *
 * Two cards, each with a picture of the frontend it starts: RetroArch's XMB menu,
 * and EmulationStation's Alekfull NX system view, both captured on the console
 * (/app0/picker/previews/*.rgba, written by the build from assets/picker/). LEFT and
 * RIGHT move, CROSS starts the frontend, CIRCLE closes the title. Both frontends
 * play every game through RetroArch, with its cores, saves, shaders and settings.
 *
 * Choosing ends the program, so its device and display are released, and then
 * ps5_title_next (called by the title's main once the program is gone) restarts
 * the title as the frontend: eboot.bin with --ps5-mode=retroarch, or
 * /app0/es-de/es-de.bin.
 *
 * Armed by /app0/picker/picker-test.txt ("<frames> <retroarch|es-de|none>",
 * tools/run-title.sh --picker-test), the picker draws that many frames without the
 * pad, moves to the card named, saves its last frame as
 * /app0/picker/screenshots/picker.ppm, chooses it, and records what it chose in
 * /app0/picker/picker-test.jsonl. The file is removed when read: it arms one launch.
