Research direction
Start with the linked MAME debugger cheat documentation and determine the cheat format details that are missing there. Then inspect BizHawk's existing frontend and CLI cheat handling to identify where import support would belong; done would require a defined format scope and a working import path, but the issue does not name files or tests.
