Support for more Platforms #38

It's maybe a bad idea because this will affect the moby.db size but even in case someone is agree, I request this.

There's some missing platforms in the systems list in Metropolis, and I know some people would be satisfied at seeing all their collection of favorite games per platform. Let's just see for instance: a guy has just discovered Metropolis, and seen all it's features and the offline database incorporated for more than 50k games, the guy downloads and while adding it's little collection, the guy seems that the Launcher isn't managing ColecoVision games!! That's unaffortunate...

I'm seeing right now while I'm writing this the list of platforms MobyGames so... Platforms that surely would be great for add:

I request without any doubts these platforms to be added.

Platforms that possibly some people will like to also see:

I'm not sure if these ones would be a great idea to add, but if I still know these consoles and mention them in case someone would like it, this discussion works for this, to know what's everyone thinks about this.

1.3.0b1 had a missing file, I uploaded https://metropolis-launcher.net/beta-releases/metropolis_launcher_1.3.0b2-mk2k.zip

If you already downloaded 1.3.0b1, here is the missing file: https://metropolis-launcher.net/beta-releases/SharpCompress.dll put it in the dll\ subfolder.

Yes!

And MS-DOS. I didn't find any mention of it in the (missing) list of supported platforms in the README.md file.

PC - DOS is a first class citizen of Metropolis Launcher. Actually this code project here isn't the main source of information regarding Metropolis Launcher, please refer to the website https://metropolis-launcher.net/
