#16614: GUI: Games that disable loading save games in the launcher can still load
in the grid view

-------------------------+--------------------
Games that disable loading save games from the launcher via the
`GUIO_NOLAUNCHLOAD` flag can still load save games in the grid view.
== Background
In game detection tables, games can set the `GUIO_NOLAUNCHLOAD` flag to
disable loading from the launcher. This flag exists for games that are
designed to be played without any way to save (e.g. only one persistent
"ironman" save) and as a workaround to prevent bugs (e.g. `ags:kathyrain`
and #12964).
== Expected
When this is flag set, the user cannot load save games from the launcher
when in list view or grid view.
== Actual
Loading saving games is disabled in the list view (i.e. the "Load…" button
is disabled), but is still possible in the grid view (i.e. clicking the
load icon brings up a load screen). See attached screenshots.
== Tested on
ScummVM 2026.1.0
