Adds Plutonium as a dependency.

Pretty cool. Maybe it would be better to have it as a separate binary entirely? libnx allows you to chainload NROs and give them command line arguments that work just like on any other platform, so it might be more convenient this way. Could also separate the ini importing feature into it. For example: GZDoom launcher

Why have it as a different binary though? Some openmw libraries from components might be needed for the launcher as well.

I guess just because PC OpenMW has a launcher as well. Also because I don't know if it can handle reinitializing SDL2 video drivers. In my experience that's always been a problem on the Switch.

I haven't tested this myself, so you may (or may not?) get a working result from this. I don't even know if pressing the start game button works or not.
