This is more difficult than it sounds at first, because currently our ConfigManager is not just used for managing the active config, but also ab-used for editing config data (once for specific targets, in the launcher's "edit game" dialog, and once for editing the "active config" in the engines/dialog.cpp ConfigDialog).

** ... detect when we an old config file is loaded which needs to be updated (e.g. by changing language "hb" to "he"; by adding "guioptions" to targets; by fixing trailing slashes in "path"; maybe even updating old style; and maybe in the future by adding "engineid" fields to all targets) | |||
