New description:

 After the merge of [https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/pull/5829 PR 5829],
 it is no longer possible to start unknown games that have been added using
 the fallback detection.

 Steps to reproduce:
 1. Find a game that is not in the detection tables, such as
 [https://u.pcloud.link/publink/show?code=XZqOPC0ZEq1Gey6YB4FBjTJLnHUpMhqCaM0V
 this testgame]
 2. Add the game using the launcher, choose "add anyway"
 3. Try to run the game. It'll fail while attempting to load the resources
 reporting a garbage gamepath.

 It should be noted, that the issue only happens for completely unknown
 games, variants (i.e. games that are in the detection tables, but with
 different checksum/size) can be run normally.
