Add a CLI argument to provide InstallDir directly to override built-in routines #510
Description
What's your idea?
As known, PCGamingWiki doesn't provide install directory information, just "path-to-game" as a variable. You've made great strides in determining these stock folder names (programmatically or from store databases), but there are gaps I've ran into. I have some primarily non-store managed games that can't find their true save location because of this (I install them all to a common root with stock folder names). I was thinking such an argument would be a great boon for your Playnite plugin in particular, which could pass the Playnite InstallDir directly and not rely on the manifest's definitions. You could probably parse it to be the game's install directory alone "relative-to-root" or just bypass the path-building and use the full path.
An alternate or co-solution would involve a way for users to submit the name of their game's InstallDir for later inclusion in manifest.yaml (if matched with a profile in the manifest, of course). This sounds like it could be quite an effort to implement, so it's not my first idea. I'm just throwing out ideas here. ¯\(ツ)/¯
