Changing file directories and a "restore" input button

It needs both of them, at least some control on changing directories, because it's a something of a drag to go to Documents to retrieve save files or emulator configurations. And I explored it because I needed to change the input, since I can't delete them from the window. Thanks for opening this space.

I'm in favor of keeping the program's data all in one place, like other emulators also do, but I also like that directory to be easily accessible, while some other emulators kind of "hide" their data inside %AppData%\Roaming or similar. So, I'm probably not going to add a way of changing directories from the default(s), but I will be adding a menu option to open the Documents\StoicGoose (or Documents\StoicGoose.GLWindow for the debugger interface) directory in Windows Explorer directly from the emulator.

As for clearing an input configuration after setting it, you can already middle-click the textbox to clear all keys or buttons assigned to that input, but this is admittedly not documented anywhere yet... Another reminder that I really need to write some proper documentation for the emulator.

Added the "Help" -> "Open Data Folder" menu option to the WinForms UI with commit 25c5c14, still pending for the GLWindow UI.
