#13171: GUI: ScummVM stops using flag/platform icons and publisher/series info
after downloading optional icon pack

 This was reproduced with the latest Windows daily build (ScummVM
 2.6.0git2157-g4d62b275e0), but has been happening for basically as long as
 game icons have been added to the launcher.

 Steps to reproduce:

 1. In Options > Paths, make sure that you don't have an Icon Path, or that
 that folder is empty.
 2. Restart ScummVM.
 3. Notice that most of your games in the launcher don't have icons (with a
 few exceptions such as FotAQ). However, they have smaller icons indicating
 language and platform. Also, the games can be automatically sorted by
 series and publisher.
 4. Set up an Icon Path.  In Options > Misc, select Update icons, and
 download the icon pack.
 5. Restart ScummVM.
 6. (Most of) Your games now have icons!
 7. However, the flags and platform icons are gone. When you try to to sort
 games by publisher or series, they all end up sorted as "Unknown
 publisher"/"No series". :(

 It feels like whatever data was included in the base download of ScummVM
 is not duplicated in the optional icon pack, and ScummVM "forgets" to
 check that it has that data once it has the icon pack.

 This was only tested with the Windows daily build provided on the website.
 I have no idea whether this happens on other platforms or with self-
 compiled builds. (Presumably it doesn't, otherwise a dev would have
 noticed and fixed the problem weeks ago.)
