Mess executable can't be used to print SoftwareLists

There is a check for IsMame and IsMameArcade in uEmuList (i think). when we print options for making a MAME scan and when we print softlists, we use this to prepare a list. There IS an Efind for mess systems (called "Mess systems.ini" or similar) but it isn't used to produce this list.
Naturally we won' t be able to use MESS to make an arcade romset, and IsMameArcade will also become a misleading name, so further work may be required there. A first step could be to just make it so mess is an 'IsMameArcade' emulator (could leave a message on the form saying it won't work for arcade), At least then MESS users could make a SoftwareList!
