Move "Moving the Game Library" into its own section.
Also, move the higher-level questions about the game library and game folders to the end of the section, so people can more easily find the bits about importing types of game.

Moving the game library
|
||||
-----------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Moving the game library is a little complicated,
|
||||
because there's two parts to it:
|
||||
telling icarus where to put imported games,
|
||||
and telling higan where to find them.
|
||||
|
||||
1. If necessary,
|
||||
create the folder you want higan to use
|
||||
as its game library.
|
||||
1. Launch icarus,
|
||||
then click the "Settings ..." button in the lower-right,
|
||||
to open the Settings dialog.
|
||||
1. Click the "Change ..." button on the right.
|
||||
A [filesystem browser](#the-filesystem-browser) window will appear,
|
||||
allowing you to choose
|
||||
where imported games will be stored.
|
||||
1. Launch higan,
|
||||
then from the Settings menu,
|
||||
choose "Configuration ..."
|
||||
to open [the Configuration dialog](#the-configuration-dialog).
