Update to bsnes v031r06? release.

Okay, I've posted a new WIP, which has a completed locale.cfg file.
Well, it's completed for v032, at least. All translations are going to
have to be updated for every release, sadly.

For those interested in translating it, I'm looking to only have
native speakers perform translations. I don't care if things aren't a
perfect literal translation, so long as the general idea gets across.
But I don't want anyone using machine translation tools, either.
They're very unprofessional, better to wait until someone fluent comes
along. Yes, I know that's ironic given my translation to Japanese:
hoping someone will re-do that one.

The reference locale file is here:
http://byuu.cinnamonpirate.com/temp/locale.cfg

Format is obviously UTF-8. Yours will need to be in this format as
well. Any local encodings will fail miserably.

You can see most of the options in bsnes v031 to see where they come
into play. I have them mostly sorted per window. Some windows share
the same string. I doubt that's going to be a problem, but we'll see.

If you have access to the WIPs, be sure to get the latest one to test
with. If not, and you're willing to translate the UI, feel free to PM
me and I'll happily send you a link to it.

I've added a "Localization by:" field to the about screen. Please feel
free to add your name there.

Next up, I'm trying something a bit different for the config files,
and I've updated readme.txt to reflect this:

bsnes will now check in the same folder as the executable for
bsnes.cfg and locale.cfg. If they're found, bsnes will use these
files. If they are not found, it will use your user profile folder for
storage.

So, if you want bsnes to run in single-user mode, just make sure
bsnes.cfg and/or locale.cfg exist. If not, you can create a blank file
and bsnes will use that next time you run it. If you want multi-user
mode, delete the files. If you want multiple profiles, use single-user
mode and multiple copies of the executable.

I'll be distributing future Windows binaries with blank bsnes.cfg and
locale.cfg files, so that single-user mode is the default. Just delete
them to switch to the old method if you prefer. Hopefully this pleases
everyone.
