Qualified game names have the following form: engineId:gameId.
Unqualified game names are still supported as long as they are not
ambiguous. However they are considered deprecated and are no longer
displayed by the --list-games command.
The engine ID identifies which engine should be used to launch the target.
Also remove the 'single ID' system. Different games from engines that used
that system now have different game IDs.

* The list of candidates now includes unknown variants. When an unknown
variant is selected, the unknown game dialog is shown.
* On the unknown game dialog, users are given the choice to add the game
when that is possible, or to cancel.
The goal of those changes is to make the unknown game dialog less
confusing for users, especially when both known and unknown games
variants are found.
The OPL2LPT is an OPL2 chip plugged on a parallel port. It is
write-only but otherwise acts as a classic AdLib. This commit adds
support for this device.
User is expected to have the right permissions on the parallel
port. By default, the first suitable parallel port is used. It is
possible to override that with the hidden configuration setting
"opl2lpt_parport".
It depends on the presence of the libieee1284 library which abstracts
a bit parallel port handling. An alternative would be to access
directly /dev/parportX on Linux. This would amount of code but it
would be Linux-only.
Tested with Indy 3 and SOMI.
Previously, a C-style cast was used to convert a
Common::Array<Plugin *>, populated with pointers to StaticPlugin
and DynamicPlugin instances, to a
Common::Array<PluginSubclass<T> *>, but PluginSubclass<T> is a
*sibling* class to StaticPlugin/DynamicPlugin, so this cast was
invalid and the results undefined. The methods for retrieving
subclasses of plugins can't be easily changed to just generate an
array of temporary wrapper objects that expose an identical API
which dereferences to the preferred PluginObject subclass because
pointers to these objects are retained by other parts of ScummVM,
so the wrappers would needed to be persisted or they would need to
just re-expose the underlying Plugin object again. This indicated
that a way to solve this problem is to have the callers receive
Plugin objects and get the PluginObject from the Plugin by
explicitly stating their desired type, in a similar manner to
std::get(std::variant), so that the pattern used by this patch to
solve the problem.
Closes gh-1051.
