Load modern texpage/texupload PNG replacements independently of DuckStation source. Integrate pack folders and options with mods, preserve native VRAM, and validate GL rendering, format matching, dump safety, and upload invalidation.
Apply committed sector mods during plugin activation, resolve paths through
patched directory records, and bound file size by CD capacity.

Preserve current segmented dispatch, active-plan mod hooks and software scale limits. Extend function filters through the active plan, retain the last-store pointer with overlay ABI 25, and keep default config fingerprints stable. Refresh BIOS emitter stamps after byte-identical regeneration and reconcile regression fixtures.
Only CPU stores are cache-isolated. Mods, the FMV skip, debug pokes, the
bg2d ring fill and the exception sentinel write guest memory from the host;
they now go through psx_host_write_*, which bypasses isc_store the way DMA
does, so a host store inside a FlushCache window reaches memory instead of
rewriting an I-cache tag. The render-pass checkpoint restores the new depth
counter like the DMA depth. isc_store_test covers it (a lane-0 host store in
tag-test mode would otherwise mark a cold line valid).
Docs: the SCPH-1001 residual starts at kernel init 0x598, and without #429
the fix removes 113 of the 126 OpenBIOS flush cycles.

Adapt the 8 MB RAM work from the rbengine branch into a master-targeted change. The builtin package is disabled by default, activation requests expanded RAM before memory init, and runtime/state/digest/dispatch paths respect the live RAM map.
Port the launcher-facing hidden feature plumbing from rbengine-bak PR #207 without resurrecting the removed 8 MB RAM manifest on master.
Source commit: 45253daf9a
A plugin that draws its own overlay primitives needs to know where the
right-hand edge of the screen is, and it cannot work that out for itself.
GPUSTAT carries the horizontal-resolution bits, so a plugin can recover
the coarse mode width, but the visible width also depends on the GP1(06h)
X1/X2 range -- and that register is write-only and mirrored nowhere a
plugin can read.
Ape Escape is the worked example. It scans out 384 (368-mode, dot clock 7,
horizontal range 539..3227) while its mode width is 368, and the usual
assumption of 320 is wrong by 64. A HUD row right-aligned to 316 lands 68
pixels short of the edge, which is exactly what the Quick Gadget Select
mod does today.
psx_mod_display_width()/psx_mod_display_height() return what the presenter
uses, straight from gpu_get_display_info(). Zero means the geometry is not
established yet, and the header tells callers to skip drawing rather than
substitute a guess -- an overlay in the wrong place is worse than an
overlay that waits a frame.
mod_runtime_test covers the passthrough with a stubbed GPU, including the
384-vs-368 case that motivates it and the zero case.
