[Feature Request] Implement gamecube bios/skip bios toggle in core options #127

So like many (i would think?) I prefer to see the systems actual bios/boot up screen - just like running on real HW.

I just got gamecube set up and working on standalone dolphin and moved the files over to the respective folder within retroarch.

Unfortunately no bios is displaying and I can only assume this is due to dolphin having the setting "Skip Main Menu" which can be toggled off once it detects a bios file.

Unsure how much work this is, but if its truly just the absence of that setting, id love if we could get the toggle added so I can get my bios functionality :)

this can be changed manually via the dolphin.ini as ive just discovered. So purely needs a toggle added to the menu.

On one hand, its paltry since users can change it themselves via ini. On the other - a "Skip bios" toggle would bring it in line with a lot of the other cores that contain similar.

I suppose ill leave this open just cause, but it can be made to work manually FTR.
