draft add config options to hide applications and games

This is just a prototype for #40, do not merge

[Apaczer]

Hi @stevenhoving,
Thanks for your last contribute and future attemps. You said you will be maintainer of device but still you prefer to leave "Settings" sections rather than "Games", which dosen't resonate much with what you've said.
Apart from that you can hide unnecessary stuff by prefixing dot (.) in name of section/file/appLink which follows general Linux Hidden rule.
I have in backlog to add an option to "Show Hidden" but this should also include editLink entry with "Hide\Unhide" or just simplier a rename option for links.

To show all in filebrowser and menu it just requies to disable part of code:

we are within std namespace, so I think no need for std::

[stevenhoving]

So I don't want to go into a theological discussion about using namespace std;. It has been my personal style to never omit std::. Of course I have to adjust my personal coding style to the coding style of the project I contribute to. So I will of course remove std:: there.

[Apaczer]

I see now that section Apps\Settings is always created if nonexistent, so maybe we could add simply a setting to hide them if requested (still I see no reason to hide Games). On a second look we could check if it's prefixed with dot (.) and then hide - would be useful in the long run
