The following controls are KB only (no GUI) and they don't save nor load from the ini (thus always reset when starting pcsx2).
New KB commands:
Move image: CTRL + NUMPAD 8/2/4/6 for up/down/left/right. CTRL + NUMPAD 5 resets to center.
Vertical stretch: CTRL+ALT+ NUMPAD PLUS/MINUS/* for stretch/shrink/reset.

These games will not work with newer PCSX2 versions anymore.
Game database: A few updates

For future reference:
Clearing registers on VIF reset = bad! That operation is designed to stop VIF Processing its current data, nothing more.
More importantly it causes me a great headache as it took me 2 days to find this >.<

This should be mandatory but (most probably) timing issues make this break more games than it fixes.
Notable exception: Mana Khemia 1 (going "off campus"), so I added it to the auto gamefix database (Only NTSC so far, anyone got the PAL CRCs?).

The uninstaller now removes all PCSX2 paths info, so that a reinstall works as expected.
It also offers to remove plugin configuration files and user created files separately.

Details:
The major differences between install and portable modes should now be:
1. Portable mode doesn't use the registry at all.
2. Portable mode uses the folders inside pcsx2 folder as default (install mode has some default at "my documents").
3. Portable mode tries to save relative paths at the ini file where possible*.
Specifically, portable mode now allows to select custom folders for plugins, bios, etc via the standard UI, which allows using several portable pcsx2 folder sharing the same resources (bios, iso, memcards, etc).
* Relative paths where possible = the following sequence (thanks to pseudonym for the brilliant idea):
1. If the file/folder is inside pcsx2 folder, it's saved as completely relative (to pcsx2.exe)
2. Else, if the file/folder is at the same drive as pcsx2.exe, it's saved as absolute path without the drive letter (e.g. /ISO/...)
3. Else, saved as absolute path, including the drive letter (for linux, without drive letter naturally).
This allows to create a removable drive with (one or more) pcsx2 folder on it, configure all the files/folders to point to the same drive (ISOs, save states, etc), and then take this drive, plug it into another computer (where it will be assigned with a different drive letter), and everything will continue working.
Please test it if you can. Bugs here can be inconvenient...

Tweaks to async mixing, making the buffer stay closer to 50% filled and also making it more effective on sharp FPS drops.

1. Create inis and bios folder before then can be accessed (e.g. configure plugins, open the bios folder via "open in explorer").
2. Small fix for the "open in explorer" error dialog if a folder doesn't exist (path text was sometimes cut off)
3. Default base directory (AppRoot() - used for plugins/themes/langs) is now the pcsx2.exe folder and not CWD (probably only affects developers, but still nicer).

Note: All files outside of pcsx2.exe folder (e.g. snapshots, memcards, bios, saved states, etc at "my documents" folder) are NOT copied automatically to the pcsx2 relative folders. So, if converting from standard install to portable and you want to keep those files, you have to copy them manually.
Bottom line: if portable mode is preferred/required, it's best to start in portable. This way no files are ever written outside of pcsx2.exe main folder (at least, that's how it should work).

2. Game database: now always loads from pcsx2 folder (was using cwd)
details:
Portable mode: folders and file names at the ini now always saved relative in portable mode -> pcsx2 folder can be moved around, renamed, etc, and everything keeps running as normal.
Note: last elf/iso folder paths are kept absolute at the ini, and so are the last/recent iso file names. This is to allow moving pcsx2 folder around without needing to select them again. The case of putting the ISO files inside the pcsx2 folder and expecting it to work when moving the folder around is still not solved for now (but the iso can always be selected manually). Maybe will get fixed soon.
Reminder: to run in portable mode, create an empty file named "portable.ini" at the pcsx2.exe folder.

Fixed assumption that all paths received from pcsx2 end in the path separator.
