For a few years now, I've been thinking it would be nice to make Dolphin
support reading Wii games in the format they come in when you download
them from the Wii U eShop. The Wii U eShop has some good deals on Wii
games (Metroid Prime Trilogy especially is rather expensive if you try
to buy it physically!), and it's the only place right now where you can
buy Wii games digitally.
Of course, Nintendo being Nintendo, next year they're going to shut down
this only place where you can buy Wii games digitally. I kind of wish I
had implemented this feature earlier so that people would've had ample
time to buy the games they want, but... better late than never, right?
I used MIT-licensed code from the NOD library as a reference when
implementing this. None of the code has been directly copied, but
you may notice that the names of the struct members are very similar.

Without this, if the user finishes selecting a directory before
directory initialization finishes, MainPresenter.onDirectorySelected
will segfault when trying to read the MAIN_RECURSIVE_ISO_PATHS setting.
An alternative would be to use AfterDirectoryInitializationRunner
after the user selects the directory instead of before, but it might
be confusing for the user to deal with the usage statistics prompt
when they were expecting to add a folder.
All of our BBA options are technically built in, so it made the BBA
Built In option kind of confusing as to what it did. So rename it to
BBA HLE to make it more clear what it is doing and why it doesn't need a
TAP.
