#17156: NANCY: My copy of Nancy 8 crashes because it can't find Diff.avf or
Diff.bik (possible fix included)

---------------------------------------------+---------------------------
 I recently got my hands on Nancy Drew 8 (The Haunted Carousel) on CD, but
 when I try to play it in ScummVM I get no sound for the splash screen and
 when I try to start the game it crashes with a "Couldn't load video file
 Diff.avf or Diff.bik!" error.

 It has the following files/directories on the root level:

 {{{
  CARAuto.exe  'Program Files'   data1.cab     layout.bin
  Ciftree       Setup.exe        data1.hdr     readme.txt
  DirectX9      Setup.ini        data2.cab     setup.bmp
  Nancy.cid     autorun.inf      ikernel.ex_   setup.inx
 }}}

 It seems to most closely matches this detection entry:

 {{{
         { // MD5 by fracturehill
                 {
                         "nancy8", nullptr,
                         AD_ENTRY1s("ciftree.dat",
 "d85192a942a207017ebf0a19207ac698", 19498032),
                         Common::EN_ANY,
                         Common::kPlatformWindows,
                         ADGF_DROPPLATFORM,
                         NANCY8_GUIOPTIONS
                 },
                 kGameTypeNancy8
         },
 }}}

 The CIFTREE.DAT file is in the Ciftree directory. The Diff.avf file it's
 looking for is in the CAB files.

 So if I add the `GF_COMPRESSED` flag, it seems to work. But is this the
 correct fix?
