Subject: [PATCH] Move ROMs to /storage/roms/ directly for easy PC access
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Previously ROMs lived in /storage/games-internal/roms/ and were
bind-mounted to /storage/roms/ at runtime. When users mounted the
ROMS partition on PC, they had to navigate through games-internal/
to find their ROM folders.

Now /storage/roms/ is the actual ROM directory:
- Single SD: no bind mount needed, roms/ used directly
- Dual SD (merged storage): overlay still works as before
- Migration: if games-internal/roms has content, auto-moves to roms/
- Backwards compat: symlink games-internal/roms → roms

Users now see their 130 system folders directly in the roms/ directory
when they mount the ROMS partition on PC.
