Fix crash when specifying -effect.
Moved -effect implementation out of OSD code and into core since the implementations were identical across Windows/SDL and implemented in the core itself.

+ Specifies a single PNG file that is used as an overlay over any game

+ root of one of the artpath directories. The pattern in the PNG file is
+ repeated both horizontally and vertically to cover the entire game
+ screen areas (but not any external artwork), and is rendered at

+ PNG will map to one pixel in the prescaled game screen. If you wish to
+ use an effect that requires mapping n PNG pixels to each game screen
+ pixel with -video ddraw, you need to specify a -prescale factor of n as
+ well. The RGB values of each pixel in the PNG are multiplied against the
+ RGB values of the target screen. The default is 'none', meaning no
