Thanks for shading more light. By now, the easiest answers were hardest to get.
So far I managed to build the emulator cores using your option 2) but since I have my kodi installed from ppa, under the prefix /usr, and owned by root, I wonder where should I copy the bin-kodi contents. I copied bin-kodi/lib/kodi to /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/kodi and bin-kodi/share/kodi to /usr/share but I'm running Kodi as kodi user, and now I have problems with getting my gamepad working in games. When I launch eg Super Mario Bros, kodi.log says
ERROR: GetDirectory - Error getting /usr/share/kodi/addons/peripheral.joystick/resources/buttonmaps/xml
ERROR: AddOnLog: Joystick Support: Error opening /usr/share/kodi/addons/peripheral.joystick/resources/buttonmaps/xml/application/Keyboard.xml: Failed to open file
Maybe I should have copied the addons somewhere to /home/kodi/.kodi ?
