📄 Description

Got a game that has an elf file separate from the default eboot.bin, and have been loading it by using the Boot Game option to pick the right file. I noticed that when this is done for an elf file in a separate update directory, it mounts the update directory to /app0/ and fails to get any files it needs to from the base game. This fixes the issue by checking if the launched executable is in an update directory and finding the base game directory to use as the /app0/ mount.
