library: document the two J2ME cores - #1191

Conversation
Both FreeJ2ME and FreeJ2ME-Plus have core info files and a database entry but no page here, which libretro/libretro-super#2094 asks for before the buildbot picks them up. The pages follow the usual shape - extensions, database, features, geometry, every core option with its values and default, and the pad mapping taken from each core's own input descriptors - with the two things that are unusual about these cores said plainly: the core is a front end for the emulator's Java application, so a Java runtime has to be installed, and the .jar that goes with the core has to be in the system directory. Sound comes out of that Java application rather than through the frontend, and saves are written by it too, which is why there are no save states.

library/freej2me.mdandlibrary/freej2me_plus.md, and a Mobile Emulation section to the nav to hold them.This is the docs half of what gouchi asked for in libretro/libretro-super#2094: both cores already have info files (libretro/libretro-super#2093) and a database (
Mobile - J2ME.dat), but neither had a page here.Each page carries the usual sections — extensions, database, BIOS, the feature table, geometry and timing, every core option with its values and default, and the pad mapping — with the option lists and pad tables taken from each core's own
retro_core_option_v2_definitionandretro_input_descriptortables rather than written from memory.Three things about these cores that the pages spell out, since they are not the usual arrangement:
java -jar,javawon Windows);freej2me-lr.jar/freej2me_plus-lr.jarhas to be in the system directory — it is listed under BIOS, which is also how the info files declare it;
