[RA1]Allow Conquer.ENG table file reading from loose file #390

There is logic for this, but it's guarded by STEVES_LOAD_OVERRIDE.

TODO investigate whether this works.

This is a historical issue. One of the patches (Counterstrike I think) added its conquer.eng in the game folder as bare file. This caused issues afterwards as later patches could no longer override the strings file properly from mixfiles, so they added code to the game to delete the file when it was present.
