Bug report

Describe the bug

Here is a clear and concise description of what the problem is:

The game.libretro.opera core cannot find BIOS files, assuming due to BIOS setting not appropriately being consumed.

RetroArch Behavior

Here is a clear and concise description of what happens in RetroArch with the same core/game:

The game starts, assuming the BIOS is in the right directory and the setting is set.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Attempt to start any 3DO game in game.libretro.opera. BIOS files placed in: ``path_to_userdata/addon_data/game.libretro.opera/resources/system```

Note log shows: AddOnLog: game.libretro.opera: [Opera]: no BIOS ROM found

Note, there's a related issue with these addons in appropriately generating the BIOS setting. See here

I attempted to manually set the BIOS file to a correct value by editing the addon settings.xml file to:

<setting label="30001" type="text" id="opera_bios" default="disabled"/>
<setting label="30002" type="text" id="opera_font" default="disabled"/>

And then entering the following for the userdata settings.xml: <setting id="opera_bios">Panasonic FZ-1 (U)</setting>

Which mimics what the setting would be if set in Retroarch: opera_bios = "Panasonic FZ-1 (U)"

Even when forcing this, the BIOS is not found, so something else particular with this core is preventing loading the BIOS file.
