Allow overriding the app delegate on iOS

Vittorio G. to Eric, Sam Actually this is much simpler than i thought, I just had to specify a class method to get the delegate name and then the category can override that method! I've attached the patch that enables this features: in my code i could remove my custom main() and simply add @implementation SDLUIKitDelegate (customDelegate) +(NSString *)getAppDelegateClassName { return @"HedgewarsAppDelegate"; } @EnD I tested it and with the sdl demos it loads the normal SDLUIKitDelegate, while in my code it loads my HedgewarsAppDelegate!
