#16156: PSP: Crash at startup on PSP 1000 (1st gen)

---------------------+-----------------------
 With a PSP 1st gen (PSP-1000) and starting from v2.7.0, ScummVM either
 crashes and return to XMB or the whole console stops working.
 v2.6.1 is the last release working. This can also be seen with PPSSPP
 emulator when configuring to PSP-1000 mode.

 A git bisect leads to a2944ad6e35d657dbc92bc7652ae61c073192017 and the
 engines/director/detection_tables.h which is a huge file to put into
 memory. 1st gen PSP is limited to 32MB of RAM while 2nd gen and later have
 64MB.

 A work in progress detection using Json files seems to be the correct way
 to fix
 [https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/compare/master...somaen:scummvm:json_detection_2025].
 A hot fix would be to disable the director engine and its detection.
