It's now possible to start a game directly from the slideshow screensaver. Also fixed toggling of the video screensaver which was not working as expected.
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX and CMAKE_INSTALL_DATAROOTDIR are now used to resolve the resource path. As of this commit, there are only two paths where resources are searched, under the user home directory and under this install prefix directory (which defaults to /usr/local/share/emulationstation/resources but can be set to for instance /opt/share/emulationstation/resources using the appropriate CMake flags).
Starting up emulationstation takes me about 1 minute over the network
with a large collection of 27 systems with images.
This patch uses the loading screen to tell the user about the status
of the startup, with information how many systems are left for view
initialization.
The most beefy part of the startup process is initializing the views,
and preloading images.
This patch extends the `renderLoadingScreen` function to take a string
and uses it in `ViewController::preload`.
v2: Add SplashScreenProgress option enabled by default.
