Qt/GameList: Add Apploader Date column
This PR adds a new "Apploader Date" column to the game list. Related: https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/13820.
Dolphin already parses the apploader date when scanning game metadata, but the value was not exposed in the UI. This change adds:
- A new column enum (Column::ApploaderDate)
- Data handling in GameListModel
- Toggle support in the "List Columns" menu
- Persistent column visibility settings
The column behaves consistently with existing metadata columns, including sorting, toggling, and view persistence.
What's the reason you would like to add this? Personally I don't really see what it would be used for.

According to the linked feature request, the use case for this feature is sorting games by build date (as an approximate analogue to release date).
Sounds useful to me, e.g. I've had the use case of trying to find games with debug info that were released around the same time.
