SCI: Show a warning window regarding GM in some games.

Sierra has released a patch adding after market General MIDI support for 8 SCI1
games (LSL1, LSL5, Hoyle 3, SQ1, SQ4, Eco1 floppy, Longbow and Fairy Tales). If
the user has selected the General MIDI music driver in one of these games and
no associated MIDI patch is found, show an informational dialog on game startup
in order to inform the user to download Sierra's MIDI patch, together with some
short instructions.
