📄 Description

With this PR, you can create a new config file in userdir/configs/ named CUSAXXXXX.toml, where CUSAXXXXX is the ID of the game you're making the config for, and you can put any option in it that you'd like overwritten for that game only. For example, if you want to have readbacks turned on for every game, but have DMA only for SotC, you can turn on readbacks in the main config (which is still userdir/config.toml), have DMA turned off there, then make the userdir/custom_configs/CUSA08809.toml file and put the following in it:

[GPU]
directMemoryAccess = true

If you have a game running, and update your settings from the GUI by opening settings and clicking save for example, these game-specific changes won't override your main config, however you can't reload them either by doing that.
