Add core options for various settings in dosbox.conf #19

Unlike most other cores, DOSBox often requires a lot of tweaking for getting certain games to work. Frontends for standalone DOSBox allow you to keep various config files and use them for specific games, but the libretro version does not. As such, I think it might be a good idea to just get rid of dosbox.conf and move all the relevant options that actually affect emulation (things like machine type, memory size, CPU core, etc.) to core options, and then let the user create various configurations depending on the game.
