[Feature Request] Add setting to disable RTC #140

Hi,

First of all thanks so much for this awesome piece of software! The latest update with the button remapping is amazing!

I have a pretty niche feature request, but if it's not too much work it would be great to have. The idea is to have a setting that disables the RTC, to simulate games' batteries running dry. Ideally this would be a per-game setting, but a global one would work as well. The use case is that in Pokemon Ruby & Sapphire you can do RNG manipulation, but this only works if the game detects a dry battery.

Thanks for considering and all the continued hard work!

Second this one. Would be very useful for Ruby\Sapphire RNG manipulation to be able to toggle RTC battery on\off with a per-game setting.

You can force the save type to a non-RTC one via a per-game config file if i recall correctly. Alternatively you can edit the save type db but this will make all copies of the same game behave the same.

Side note: Seems like i missed this issue somehow.
