Summary0005927: Save user settings by application version
DescriptionTo prevent newer DarkRadiant versions from overwriting settings of previous builds, each version should save its settings to its own folder. I assume this is pretty much what Blender has been doing for quite some time now.

When new DarkRadiant versions are starting up the first time, they should copy/upgrade the newest existing settings, accessing them in a read-only fashion. From that point on, the active build will write to the folder tied to its specific version only, never touching any other folders.
