Changed the crash reporter dialog to now show the version along with using crash instead of error to make things more cohesive including the preference page (i.e. error reporting becomes crash reports)
Changed how some of the artwork loading is done when the raw data is requested which should better handle misnamed files so it's not purely relying on the file extension (this was seen with some CD artwork look-ups not getting the expected jpeg result which meant the file was wrongly named as being a jpeg when in the scenario found it was a png)
Fixed an odd crash seen early on in loading whilst trying to obtain one of the default menu strings when that can instead be pulled from the stringtable resource only when needed (aka running less code)
Fixed a crash when attempting to remove artwork from a CD entry due to the handling incorrectly handling the non-url form of CD entries when the in_cdda plug-in had already dealt with things along with not double-checking that taglib is able to be loaded for the action (the handling shouldn't have failed on that but if the OS is blocking it from loading as was likely the case then this also avoids that)
Fixed more problems reported related to the prior atf optimisation changes from build 25130 which could break the shown output for null / empty string inputs along with $replace getting stuck in a loop
