Description

For example, Gambatte's no-BIOS setting uses HLE (memory is set up on frame 0), but SameBoy's uses LLE (a reimplementation which, annoyingly, is slower than the original BIOS).

Research direction

Start by comparing the existing syncsettings behavior for Gambatte and SameBoy, focusing on BIOS enable/disable and HLE versus LLE. Define the desired standardized behavior across the affected cores, then identify and update the relevant settings and tests; done means the conventions are consistent and verified for each case.
