Summary: ITE: Game detection is broken

Initial Comment:
The game detection for ITE is quite broken at the
moment. We simply cannot tell the difference between
the various versions. For instance, if I copy the files
from my Linux CD version (since the game detector
cannot detect the game directly from CD) and try to add
it, I'm presented with the following choices:

Inherit the Earth (Linux CD Version)
Inherit the Earth (Win32 CD Version)
Inherit the Earth (DOS/Win32 CD Version)

While I can select that this is the Linux version, this
information is not saved in the config file except as a
game description. At run-time, it will simply pick one.
And it probably picks the wrong one, since the game
crashes with a "RAWInputStream() wrong musicInfo!" message.

My Windows version is is identified as either:

Inherit the Earth (Win32 CD Version)
Inherit the Earth (DOS/Win32 CD Version)

I have a nagging feeling that it's mis-identified at
run-time, because there are glitches with the WyrmKeep
logo animation. I'll see if I can look into that later.
It's outside the scope of this bug report.

My Multi-OS version is correctly identified, but plain
refuses to run. I'm returned to the launcher with no
error message. I'll see if I can look into that later,
as well. It, too, is outside the scope of this bug report.
