Use an API to auto-populate game titles #29

Would be cool if we could get exact and consistent game titles, maybe using an API like IGDB.

I definitely have plans to have the game input have some kind of fuzzy search on it, but have not yet decided how it will get data.

I've been thinking it will either query games the user has already input (or more likely the games in history entries that are currently visible if and when I decide to start limiting the items that are displayed) or it would use an external API similar to what you linked.

I've added a separate issue(https://github.com/mzrimsek/track-my-playtime/issues/30) that addresses the other half of this functionality
