Made some changes from review comments:

- Made LoadKernelSystemMode return a pair consisting of a system mode and a result code (Could use review).
- Deleted ErrorOpenGL error code in favor of just having ErrorVideoCore.
- Made dialog messages more clear.
- Compared archive ID in fs_user.cpp to ArchiveIdCode::NCCH as opposed to hex magic.
- Cleaned up some other stuff.
