Add a dependency-free keypad state machine in gba-core, map KEYCNT, latch IF bit 12, and wake HALT through the existing interrupt gates. Sample complete CPU/DMA control writes once so transient byte values cannot create false requests.
Document the mGBA-style polling policy and its unverified hardware retrigger limits. Cover every button-state/selection pair, register masks, repeated requests, byte/word writes, failed-store isolation, DMA priority, ARM/Thumb IRQ return, BIOS IntrWait, and retained BIOS reset state.
Follow the restructured workspace and modular documentation. Validated on Darwin arm64: workspace and core/demo tests pass in debug and release, with Clippy, rustdoc, ten native window smoke tests, and terminal demos passing.
