Temporarily fix ambient and interface sound checkboxes from `optlist.ini`

After the release of HDE v0.6, a bug has been discovered where the ambient and interface sound checkboxes from the options menu didn't work properly. Enabling these checkboxes causes the ambient and interface sounds to be very loud. Normally the game automatically calculates the ambient and interface volume, hence the checkboxes aren't actually necessary.

The fix has been applied already to the HDE GitHub a while back: FLHDE/freelancer-hd-edition@e0f8624. The deletion of line 28 and 29 effectively remove the two sound-related checkboxes, which fixes the bug. In the installer code we can temporarily comment out these two lines to do the same thing.

The idea previously was to include this fix for the next HDE release. However, since it may still be a while before that gets released, it might be a good idea to include the fix in a small update to the existing v0.6 installer.
