ESCore implements the core functionality that can also be used outside of emulation. ESDevice implements the IOS device and is only available during emulation.
This actually eliminates any setting pertaining to SD cards from the
NetPlay dialog, as it would effectively just be a duplicate of the
setting in the Wii pane, potentially causing confusion.
This also enables save data writing by default, as this is probably
what most players want, and should avoid them losing hours of progress
because they forgot to tick a checkbox.

The SaveToSYSCONF call in BootManager.cpp was unintentionally
overriding the temporary NAND set by the preceding
InitializeWiiRoot call. Fixes
https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/12500.
CopyNandFile must not create empty files on the destination filesystem
if the source file doesn't exist.
Otherwise, this can lead to an empty Mii database being created in the
session Wii root if there's no database in the configured Wii root and
netplay or Movie is used -- that database would then be copied back to
the configured root, which causes games like MKW to complain about
corrupted Mii data even when the player has stopped using netplay.
This commit also simplifies CreateFullPath usage.
There's no need to manually extract the directory from the path,
FS::CreateFullPath does it automatically just like File::CreateFullPath
When booting a Wii game, Dolphin can overwrite certain settings
in the SYSCONF file, such as turning off PAL60 for NTSC games.
Normally, these settings get reverted at the end of emulation, but
this does not happen if Dolphin crashes or force quits in some other
way. (Personally, I have a tendency to use Visual Studio's Stop
Debugging button, which kills the process...)
Dolphin also overwrites certain values in setting.txt when booting
a Wii game. Unlike with SYSCONF, we currently make no effort to
preserve the original values in this file.
This change fixes both of these problems by copying SYSCONF and
setting.txt to the Backup folder when booting a Wii game, and then
copying them back either when launching Dolphin (in case the
previous run of Dolphin crashed) or when ending emulation.
Fixes a regression from #8539.
CreateDirectory was the correct function to use for creating
directories since parent directories already exist and are
not owned by the system menu.
