Cleanup ILLUSION and ILLGAMES game entries #741

There are some double db entries for games while one should be split up IMHO:

Double entries:

So https://lutris.net/games/emotion-creator/ , https://lutris.net/games/koikatu/ , https://lutris.net/games/koikatu-after-school/ , https://lutris.net/games/samabake-scramble/ , and https://lutris.net/games/honey-select-2-libido-deluxe/ should be deleted (I might be guilty of creating 2 of those ...)

Mashed entries:

The japanese version and the steam release (where existent) of the games are usually quite different, mainly cut content in the steam release, this results in mod incompatibility and the community around these games usually sees them as different entries.

the lutris db mostly refelects this (albeit being by accident):

but with the one exeption of: https://lutris.net/games/honey-select-2-libido-dx/

my suggestion is to give the steam release the slab honeyselect2libido-dx as that reflects the actuall title it has on Steam https://steamdb.info/app/1631080/

Name transscription:

There is no real universal way in the community on how to transscribe the japanese names of the games: Some are translated (like Summer Vacation! Scramble) Some are sometimes written without spaces and sometimes written with spaces (like HoneySelect 2 vs Honey Select 2, I have seen both quite often) and i don't even know how many versions of transscribing AI-Shojou i have seen.

Should i try to come up with a somewhat unified ruleset to then make the names more predictable?

Addons as seperate entries?

Currently the addons are seperate entries in the db, but they are more dlc like: adding more content while the actuall exe stays the same (or gets overwritten by the installer). An argument could be made for merging the addon und non addon entries into one (the install scripts are the same anyway) e.g. https://lutris.net/games/roomgirl/ and https://lutris.net/games/roomgirl-paradise/
