Research direction

Start by reviewing the linked Virtual X68000 website and source repository, then compare its C++ core with BizHawk's existing core-port structure. The issue names no BizHawk files, tests, or entry points, so the scope must first be established. Done would mean an agreed integration plan and a working Virtual X68000 core for the listed Unix-like platforms.
