Whiteboard

Multiple extension support is built into waynemou/wahcade/devel branch, please review

 - Multiple rom extensions may be specified and separated with a semicolon;
    - ie. smc;sfc;bin
 When a game is launched and this is recognized in the extension field of the ini the system will
 loop through the extensions whilst checking if a file exists with each extension to set the correct
 extension for the launched game. It will execute the first one found

 - Empty Rom Extension field
 Leaving the extension field empty will act as a wildcard and add all items in the rom path to the
 list. When executing a game the system will check for the first match of the rom title and execute.
