Description

At the moment ax6 RTC rooms (`ax6/rtc3test-1.gb`, `ax6/rtc3test-2.gb`, `ax6/rtc3test-3.gb`) require CGB to run, but they can actually work also on DMG.

I think we can remove `model=CGB` for these and use DMG screenshots instead, so that they can run also on emulators not supporting GCB. What do you think?

Research direction

Start with the configuration entries for ax6/rtc3test-1.gb, ax6/rtc3test-2.gb, and ax6/rtc3test-3.gb. Check how model=CGB and the screenshots are specified; done means these ROMs no longer require CGB and use DMG screenshots, with the test suite or comparison run confirming they work on DMG-capable emulators.
