Add way to define default preset in category for graphic packs
Description
Instead of the default option always being the first option in the list of presets, let graphic packs able to define a default preset.
This would make a lot of preset selections properly sorted. It would be used for resolution packs which offer resolutions below or above the default resolution and a lot of other packs.
I can see two ways of implementing it:
- Have a
[DefaultPreset]that is basically just a Preset except that it's always chosen by default. - Having a
default = 1key in a Preset to indicate that it should be chosen by default. This could be added without a version bump instead of the suggestion above since it would be more or less an optional feature.
That's basically the idea. Maybe (add a way to) make the default option visually stand out or have a reset button somewhere.

Also, I forgot to mention that this has no impact on the order or the way how it's sorted. Kinda made it sound like that.
Here's also a more concise example for one of the suggested implementations. Basically, the following code
[Preset]
category = Resolution
name = 640x360
$width = 640
$height = 360
[Preset]
category = Resolution
name = 960x540
$width = 960
$height = 540
[DefaultPreset]
category = Resolution
name = 1280x720 (Default)
$width = 1280
$height = 720
[Preset]
category = Resolution
name = 1600x900
$width = 1600
$height = 900
would produce something like:
The 1280x720p option is selected because it uses the [DefaultPreset] section name and the user hasn't changed the preset.
