[FEATURE] Add ability to download older proton-ge versions

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Sometimes it can be annoying when a game only works with an older proton-ge version that is not supported by ProtonPlus and the only option is to go to GE's github to download it. Ex: Ys 1 (1 and 2 complete) only displays the initial cinematic with proton-ge 6.21-2 and the earliest version available by the app is 7-38.

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to have an option to display older versions of proton-ge

Describe alternatives you've considered
A solution to not clutter the interface with lots of versions could be at the end of the list put a "more" or "older" button that leads to a popup window with older versions of proton-ge available to download.

That was on my list already, but I'll keep the issue open as a tracker. I wasn't planning to work on ProtonPlus this weekend, but I guess I can push myself to do it. I haven't really worked on it for some time now.

I've implemented the feature. I just need to test it a bit to make sure everything still works.

I added a simple load more releases row when there's more to see.

It's now mostly working, I just have a few problems to fix. It shouldn't be too long.

Answer 6 · 2023-07-29T13:53:06.000Z

Fixed everything on my list. I now just need to re-test everything to make sure I did not forget anything.

Thank you so much for working on it, it will surely help me and a lot more people playing older games.

@jntdofe It's now finished. I've tested it a bit and everything looks fine to me. If you have any problem just create an issue and I'll do my best to fix it. Here's the pull request if you're interested #132.

I just have a few more things I want to do before making an update, but I'm pretty sure I should be able to finish what I want before the end of the week.
