IGDB catalogues a console and its regional twin as two separate
platforms (SNES/Super Famicom, NES/Famicom). RomM locked each IGDB
search to a single platform id, so a region-exclusive title catalogued
under only the twin — e.g. the Japan-only Super Famicom game
"Rudra no Hihou" (platform 58) scanned from an `snes` folder
(platform 19) — was filtered out before name matching ran and never
matched.
Include a platform's regional twin in the IGDB platform filter so both
are searched. A non-twin platform keeps the exact existing query
(`platforms=[19]`); a twin produces an OR group
(`(platforms=[19] | platforms=[58])`), leaving all other platforms and
recorded cassettes unchanged.

IGDB scans dropped games whose filename uses a localized (non-English)
title even when that title exists in IGDB's alternative_names. The
alternative_name wildcard search surfaced the correct game, but
_search_rom() rebuilt its name->game candidate dict using only the
primary English name, so the Jaro-Winkler re-check scored the localized
term below threshold and discarded the match (issue #3435).
Add _index_games_by_searchable_name(), which indexes each game by its
primary name plus alternative_names and game_localizations titles, and
use it for both candidate-building passes in _search_rom(). Primary
names keep precedence (lowest-igdb-id tiebreak); alternative/
localization titles fill in only names not already claimed.

- Add `STANDALONE_EXPANSION` game type to the `with_game_type` filter in
`_search_rom` so games like "Ecco: The Tides of Time" (which IGDB classifies
as a standalone expansion) are included in the first search pass and are not
confused with their parent game ("Ecco The Dolphin")
- Fix the expanded search fallback to fetch and compare ALL unique game IDs
returned by the IGDB search endpoint, instead of only the first result
- Add tests to verify both fixes
