Top Games feature

[Dteyn]

I've implemented a Top Games feature for tadpole where the user can supply a list of games via TopGames.txt and have those games sorted and placed at the top of the games listing.

Here are the details on the changes made:

• tadpoleConfig.py changes:

  • Config setting _static_topGamesEnabled with default to False
  • Methods getTopGamesEnabled and setTopGamesEnabled to read and set the new config option

• SettingsDialog.py changes:

  • Section "Sorting Options" with a checkbox to enable/disable the "Top Games" sorting feature.
  • Method topGamesToggled which calls tpConf.setTopGamesEnabled in tadpole_config

• tadpole_functions.py changes:

  • Function read_top_games which reads the TopGames.txt file and returns it as a dictionary, with a list of games for each system
  • Systems are defined by a trailing colon, for example FC: or GBA:

• tadpole.py changes:

  • Imported read_top_games from tadpole_functions.py
  • top_games_list initialized as an empty list
  • Function RunFrogTool modified to get the top_games_list and pass it to frogtool.process_sys if Top Games feature is enabled
  • Function loadROMsToTable modified to display top games if Top Games feature is enabled

• frogtool.py changes:

  • Function process_sys takes an additional parameter: top_games which defaults to an empty list, which is passed to write_index_file
  • Function write_index_file will re-sort the games with top games if feature is enabled, before metadata pointers are generated

• Added error handling to gracefully handle cases where the TopGames.txt file is missing or improperly formatted.

• Conducted thorough testing to ensure the new feature functions as intended without disrupting existing functionality.
