On Mobile Forge Port (only) there is the possibility to set a preferred art for a card, from card catalog.
Once a card art is selected, it will always be returned for that specific art whenever no other specific edition is specified.
This commit adds changes to cardDb setPreferredArtMethod (API) and CardRequest.fromString to work with any preferred art (if any).
CardRequests reflects this change by adding another (private) constructor which expects to create a CardRequest from a preferredArt entry in the form of (CardName|SetCode|ArtIndex)

When StatTypeFilter is used withing Deck Editor (with all PaperCard instance in ItemPool), avoiding checking instance class improves performance a bit (saving a couple of hundreds of milliseconds).
However, when this filter with also other inventory items (pack or deck), the same code as before is executed.
This commit FIXES a bug in card catalog which did not allow to switch the view (on hover) on cards with backface that have more than one instance!
The implementation has been simplified, also removing an unused attr!
The corresponding related Preference in settings has been also simplified to two values (being the other not even used anywhere in the game).
Therefore, now in game settings it will be possible to choose between "NEVER" switch card states, and "SWITCH on HOVER".
The default value in Constant has been updated accordingly!
The huge improvement is due to a re-use of a getAllCards(Name, Predicate) method I started implementing into another branch for DeckImporter - re-using this method internally resolves a **lot** of duplicated iterations, and checks, which made the whole method to run even faster than the original legacy implementation!
An extra test method has been added to verify the corner case of querying for a card from editions with a very high (and weird) artIndex (like a land) - making sure that exact card is finally returned!
New method in Interface API to get all cards in a given setCode.
This has changed the implementation of getArtCount avoiding to iterate over all the possible card prints.
This optimisation removes redundant queries when looking for cards by specificed Art Preference.
getCardsFromSet has been worked-around, avoiding querying for potential candidates already in memory.
A preliminary benchmark/tests is implemented too.
Forge loads all files found on the setlookup folder.
Example J21.txt (J21 set code) contains a list of set codes (sorted from Newest to Oldest beforehand) to lookup for images on other sets.
getUnique previously returned random results, based on the internal order in which entries were found.
Now, filtering by Unique Cards in Catalog is aware of the current Cart Art Preference
Also, the algorithm takes into account the case in which card image is missing.
In that case, the method tries to fill in the gaps with those alternatives having images. If not possible, the original entries are returned.
DeckChooser uses it's own `selectedDeckType` to get current selected deck type (instead of querying it from deckComboBox) to update forge perferences, accordingly.
