Allow mixing of different coverflows by treating the external booter DOL as a plugin. #142

What new or enhanced feature are you proposing?
Use the external booter DOL currently used to boot Wii games and channels and 
GameCube games as if it were a plugin.

What goal would this enhancement help you achieve?
Take advantage of the code that's already in place allowing us to mix games 
from different plugins on the same coverflow and also allow GameCube game and 
Wii games and channels to be mixed together on the same coverflow as well.

I know this would be a fairly big change but since the idea of mixing 
coverflows has been brought up a few times, this idea occurred to me and it 
might be a good starting point of how to implement it.

It could also help implement the option of always returning to the same 
coverflow you were on since that already seems to work with plugins.

Well, that would be possible but making it to a plugin would mean I would need 
to rewrite most of its code because lists are a bit different there. If you get 
wii and gamecube games, it checks for the wii and gamecube magic, and the 
problem is plugins dont check anything so that means if you would do it as 
plugin it would display everything without checking if it even works. Oh, and 
the external booter just boots wii games and channels, not gamecube games ;)
