0002057: Chocolate Doom: simplify "join server" setup dialog
When joining a server that already has at least one player we can assume that the server is set up and that the user only needs to specify PWADs and IWAD as the current version of Chocolate Doom doesn't provide any information on those.

* tnt.wad and plutonia.wad IWADs are incorrectly reported as doom2.wad.
* PWADs aren't reported at all.

Simplified "join server" setup dialog would only display IWAD and PWADs picker widgets.
No tags attached.

Works for me. In fact, tnt.wad was what I tested 0002014 with. What version of Chocolate Doom are you running?

Chocolate Doom v2.1.0, downloaded from main page of'http://www.chocolate-doom.org. [^]' I just checked to be sure and it doesn't work. I set up a dedicated server, then I joined it setting up tnt.wad and Doomseeker displays doom2.wad. Initially I thought we have another bug in Doomseeker, but my server just doesn't report the "game mission" byte properly.

By the way, server hosting for Chocolate Doom also isn't done properly by Doomseeker. What it should do is to start a server by passing only the -dedicated, -port and (optionally) -privateserver arguments, and then launch the executable again with all the remaining arguments and an additional join command that will join localhost:port on which the -dedicated process is running. Previously Chocolate Doom had separate executables, but we didn't update the plugin when they got merged into one. I don't think this requires hotfixing right now, as the problem can be easily worked around just by starting the -dedicated server manually and then joining it from Doomseeker as with any other server, but it needs to be fixed eventually.
