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. svn-id: r52500
