More streamlined launch sequence when starting Fullscreen mode #3396

Feature description

I was wondering if it would be possible to make the launch sequence for Fullscreen mode a little more simplified and streamlined?

Currently startup with the default theme looks like the video below, and everything between the splash screen and the main view goes by so fast that it's basically just flickering images. The main problem seems to be that "No games found for the specific search/filter criteria" shows up because the database hasn't finished loading yet, but maybe it would be possible to hide this screen somehow and only show the Loading game library screen until the library has finished loading?

Screenshots

If at all possible, I think that the ideal startup sequence would look like this:

Splash screen > Loading game library > Fullscreen mode main view.

Some nice transitions between the screens would make it even cooler, but I have no idea if that's actually possible. :)

This is pretty much solved with custom theme/or just small addition to default theme.
