480p Graphics Fix [Leseratte]

The user "Extrems" apparently found a bug in the Nintendo SDK that causes 480p graphics to not look as good as they could, and made a patch for libogc (more info: https://shmups.system11.org/viewtopic.ph...8#p1361158 )

I just implemented that patch as a cheat code for Mario Kart Wii, but I don't have a 480p display config ready so I can't test if it works properly. At least it doesn't crash the game. Anyone want to test that cheat code with a 480p config and see if it improves video quality?

EDIT: Apparently the code is only useful on older Wiis, as on newer Wiis and on WiiU Nintendo seems to have fixed their bug in hardware.

Hard to see but if you look closely (especially on the top border grey/white area) you can see the quality/sharpness increase
