The difference between Dolphin's game IDs and GameTDB's game IDs
is that GameTDB uses four characters for non-disc titles, whereas
Dolphin uses six characters for all titles.
This fixes:
- TitleDatabase considering Datel discs to be NHL Hitz 2002
- Gecko code downloading not working for discs with IDs starting with P
- Cover downloading mixing up discs with channels (e.g. Mario Kart Wii
and Mario Kart Channel) and making extra HTTP requests. (Android was
actually doing a better job at this than DolphinQt!)
These disc images are only used on dev units and not retail units.
There are two important differences compared to normal Wii disc images:
- The data starts 0x8000 bytes into each partition instead of 0x20000
- The data of a partition is stored unencrypted and contains no hashes
Our old implementation was just guesswork and doesn't work at all.
According to testing by GerbilSoft, this commit's implementation
is able to read and extract files in the filesystem correctly,
but the tested game still isn't able to boot. (It's thanks to their
info about unencrypted disc images that I was able to make this commit.)
