[android/fs] external content loader + nca/xci patches (#3596)

Foreword: WHY DON'T EVERYBODY USE ONE FOLDER FOR EACH GAME+CONTENTS? AIN'T THIS THE FORMAT GAMES COME WHEN YOU BUE THEM? DO YOU LIVE WITH ALL YOUR FRIENDS AND HAVE A 2ND HOUSE FOR ALL THE CHILDREN?

Nice, i feel better now.

This feat extends Maufeat's work on external content loading. It harmonically additions:
"...also, if in each game folder X, you find a folder Y, and in this folder Y you detect ONLY a single game, then mount all external content for that game found in that folder Y and its subfolders."
Permanent (not toggleable). External Content folders are supported equally.

Also:
-Reworked several routines for preserving single source of truth between android and other systems;
-Fixed the annoying unknown format error for content files, by providing proper format detection.
