Fixed a few dead URLs

Starting development up again now that I have time.

Added better error handling.
Removed the executable version because it will always flag as a virus (As a sneaky batch file wrapped in an executable should be)
Fixed up some typos and formatting in the script.

Updater Fixed

Fixed the built in updater for users who have RetroCake installed into a custom directory.

As usual, if you are uncomfortable using the EXE use the batch file, they are the same, the EXE is just a tad cleaner for end users.

Added sselph's scraper

Please support sselph, as his scraper is pretty great.
https://github.com/sselph/scraper

Scraper options are currently only for scraping all games.
Over the next week I will add the option to scrape individual systems.

As usuall, if you do not trust the compiled executable you can use the .bat file.

Added EmulationStation Install Failover

Added a feature to fallback to EmulationStation 2.8.0 in case the current builds are failing.
Still needs some additional testing, but it should resolve issues when the current continuous build is not succeeding.
It will also alert if EmulationStation is not installing at all, even with this backup option.

As Usual the Exe will give a false positive on AV due to the way it loads, so if you are concerned use the Bat file.

Compatibility Rewrite

Updated All URLs (ES, Additional Emulators)
Removed powershell as the main download action.
Cleaned up the spacing that was used to display download progress (Not needed with wget)
Silenced unzipping (Cleaner looking)
Script now downloads wget binaries.
Updated comments.
Bumped version number to 1.4.0

The wget switch should help with a ton of compatibility issues. since invoke-webrequest was the main source of pain for users.

The executable flags as a virus on virustotal.

If you do not want to use the executable use the batch file instead. They do the same thing except the executable file is cleaner.

The Executable doesn't require right click, run as admin, and works from your temp appdata directory so there's no chance of losing/editing the script.

Hosting a build of ES for failover

This is a compiled version of EmulationStation 2.8.0
It will be used in case the continuous builds are failing and it cannot install the latest version.

Added the ability to install RetroCake to a custom directory instead of C:\RetroCake
I have done testing with installation and cleanup, but do not have time to test every function (though they should all work)

The Executable will be flagged by AV, but is is clean.
If you feel uncomfortable using it then go ahead and use the batch file version.

reverted from EXE format
