#16157: SCUMM: HE: HENetworkGameOptionsDialog error when adding Backyard Football

This was initially reported by user nozomi on the forums:
<https://forums.scummvm.org/viewtopic.php?p=100505#p100505>.
It seems that the issue happens on the RISC OS, Raspberry Pi and OSXPPC
ports (probably because not all network libraries are enabled there, I
think).
It's possible to reproduce the issue on a regular PC this way:
1. Build with:
{{{
./configure \
--disable-all-engines --disable-detection-full \
--enable-engine=scumm,scumm-7-8,he \
--disable-cloud \
--disable-libcurl \
--disable-sdlnet \
--disable-optimizations --enable-debug
}}}
2. Download and extract the football-win-demo-us.zip archive from
<https://scummvm.org/demos/>.
3. Try to add the game to the launcher from that setup.
It will fail doing so, with the following error:
{{{
WARNING: No layout found for dialog 'HENetworkGameOptionsDialog'!
Unable to load widget position for
'HENetworkGameOptionsDialog.NetworkVersion'. Please check your theme files
for theme 'scummremastered'!
}}}
I think it has something to do with some ifdef missing this case in
`engines/scumm/dialogs.cpp`, but I have zero knowledge of that game and
I'm a bit lost in that part of the engine.
Question is: as some ports have their reasons of not providing network
support, is it possible for this game to be run with all the network/UI
features for it being fully disabled?
