Description
From the current CDL, it cannot be determined whether the ROM data was read as an 8-bit value or a 16-bit value. So I would like to request to add a new flag like CPUData16.

Research direction
Start by tracing the SNES CDL implementation for the BSNES core and locating the existing CPUData flags. Review how CDL flags are represented and recorded, then determine the expected behavior for a CPU 16-bit data-read flag. Done means the new flag is emitted in the relevant CDL output and covered by the project’s existing tests, if present.
