the startup happens in two steps now, there is a global prefs and game select 
step prior to the usual startup

console logging needs to start as early as possible for efficient debugging .. 
moving to the global pref.

we check for .pid existence after we init game prefs. There is a possibility 
that something would fail in the game prefs dialog / global prefs loading 
process, which we don't catch now. We prompt for cleanup of the game prefs / 
stateful information, which we can't do properly without global game info 
loaded.

switching to a two-step .pid solution:
we will use g_strAppPath + "radiant.pid" for global startup (i.e. very 
temporary)
and a radiant-game.pid file in the game installation path (i.e. until we reach 
interactivity).

going to do that now
