#13231: TOLTECS: Demo fails to load adlib timbre file

Comment (by dwatteau):
Hit this too when testing the game for the 2.6.0 release.
As is, the current `toltecs-demo.zip` archive puts the `WESTERN` file in
an `ENGLISH.PDI/` directory. The current detection code for TOLTECS
doesn't look for this file in this particular directory.
So:
* if you point ScummVM to the main directory, it will say it can't find
any game there.
* if you point ScummVM to the `ENGLISH.PDI/` subdirectory, it will detect
the game, but it will fail running with the Adlib error above.
The quickest fix would be to repack the hosted demo so that
`ENGLISH.PDI/WESTERN` is moved back to the main directory. That would also
make it work out-of-the-box on older ScummVM releases.
(If the TOLTECS detection code can also look for `ENGLISH.PDI/WESTERN` as
a fallback, that could also be helpful in case the original demo was
shipped this way.)
