Various changes (nds-bootstrap 0.39.0 and minor corrections mostly) (#13)

Browse Source 
* Change GameBrew link

Now uses the All homebrew tab instead of the Applications tab

* Use #Games

This will auto-jump to the Games section, while still listing all of the other applications.

* Minor changes + DNS removal

-Added links to websites (https://wiimmfi.de, https://save-nintendo-wifi.com/)
-Removed second AltWFC DNS (52200 upon connection)
-Added second Wiimmfi DNS
-Removed BenFi DNS and Twilit WFC DNS (20110 upon connection, unlikely many people use/used these anyways)
-Added mention of Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector
-Minor grammar corrections

* Other adjustments

Mostly relating to grammar

* nds-bootstrap 0.39.0 update

Things to consider *not* changing or making further edits:
- nds-bootstrap troubleshooting edits (would this be considered good enough/better than what it was before?)
- Removing Donor ROM/E-type cheat section (do these still apply?)
- Adding in-game menu or launching DSiWare to nds-bootstrap vs flashcard section (didn't think these were complete enough for them to be worth adding)

* Corrected /

* Add suggestion of trying different run settings

* Add DSi Mode in-game menu explanation

Also changed TWLMenu++ to TWiLight Menu++ and added spaces to slashes

* Remove reference to running DSi-Enhanced games in DS mode

Also added `-` for Universal-Updater

* Fix capitalization of Unlaunch

* Fix flashcard/flashcart

Flashcard = Slot-1, flashcart = Slot-2, according to contributing page

* Update pages/_en-US/nds-bootstrap/faq.md

#### Why use nds-bootstrap over a regular flashcard?

#### Donor ROMs
Most SDK5 games can be selected as a Donor ROM (which can be done via TWiLight Menu++). The Donor ROM's ARM7 binary is copied by nds-bootstrap and replaces the ARM7 binary for the game that it is trying to run. This allows certain and SDK5 games to boot and save.

The way E cheat types are implemented in nds-bootstrap is broken, meaning they'd only work half of the time.
Your cheat probably uses that type. It is not a fault of the cheat database, but rather a fault of nds-bootstrap. Please do not request these cheats to get deleted from the DB.
#### Is there anything else I should know about cheats?
You can set heap shrink to `Hi` in settings for slightly better cheat support.
For more info on cheats, look [here](https://wiki.ds-homebrew.com/ds-index/retail-roms#action-replay-cheats).
#### nds-bootstrap troubleshooting
If you get issues with using the latest version of nds-bootstrap, here's how you could troubleshoot it.
1. Run everything in 67 MHz, DS Mode, with 32 kHz of audio, etc. Basically, keep everything to DS settings. Don't try to improve it with DSi stuff
1. Run the game with different settings, including changing the ARM9 CPU Speed, DS / DSi Mode, sound quality, Card Read DMA, etc
2. Delete the `fatTable` and `patchOffsetCache` folders in `sd:/_nds/nds-bootstrap/`
3. It's probably not that big of an issue; ask in the [Discord server](https://discord.gg/yD3spjv)

#### Why can't I dump games on DSi?
You need unlaunch installed in order to be able to dump games onto your SD card. You can install unlaunch by following [dsi.cfw.guide](https://dsi.cfw.guide/).

#### How do I use cheats?
You need to have a cheat DB in the form of a `usrcheat.dat` file in the `sd:/_nds/TWiLightMenu/extras/` folder. The most updated cheat database is [DeadSkullzJr's](https://gbatemp.net/threads/deadskullzjrs-flashcart-cheat-databases.488711/).
- On the 3DS, this database is available in the Universal Updater app as "NDS Cheat Databases." This will automatically install it to the required location.
