[bug#30380] gnu: Add dolphin-emu.

[Rutger Helling]

Hi Björn,

Thanks for the review. I've added a phase to the patch that removes all
the file types that you mentioned entirely. 

I think that the only files that are truly needed to work are
"Data/Sys/GC/font_{western,japanese}.bin". Thankfully these two
files can be built from the source code. I've done that in the
'remove-more-binaries&generate-fonts phase as well.
