A streamed RetroArch exit's save landed in "No slot", and the stream's states were filed under a different emulator than the one Cloud Sync and the other RetroArch clients use, so neither side could see the other's. A streamed exit's save is now stored as an `autosave` version, like the other clients' autosaves. Stream saves and states are filed under the core's RetroArch folder, which the broker reports as `library_name`; a broker that doesn't is filed under the core id. A stream resumes from any state in the booted core's folder, including other clients' states and ones filed under an alias of the folder, and the picker's core rule gains the folder's names so it offers them too. Cloud Sync shares the slot with stream captures but never writes over or deletes one: an upload goes to the slot's newest non-capture state or creates one, sending a capture's own bytes back is a no-op, and a delete removes the slot's other states and leaves captures in place.
