(MAME) explore incorporating MAME cheats #412

I've been tracking down the necessary metadata to enable cheating for the various MAME cores. As of today, each of the 'frozen' MAME cores includes a cheat.dat in a folder titled metadata which should make it possible to use MAME's internal cheat engine.

That said, one day someone might want to adapt MAME cheats to the standard libretro approach to cheating. That isn't me -- today at least -- but I thought I'd post an issue in case this project catches anyone else's imagination.

Try it out with a few games! See if it works.
