#GOG integration is all ready to go and smoke tested. But the backing data is probably stale on a good portion of user installs. This needs to be fixed before launching this work.

I've been kicking it around a little bit, but I may end up packaging a dump of the catalog with the installer, bulk loading it, and throwing it away after import. The benefit of this too is that it would prevent a huge catalog fetch on initial install, and should help get people up and running quicker.

This is more tech debt TBH, because I added some additional metadata to the catalog that was largely future facing. And the future is now.

I'm weighing the local load option against marking _all_ of the catalog data as being modified. This would force a fetch and reconcile which would do the same thing. It may be the short term solution, but long term the catalog needs to be delivered with the app.
