This adds better directions for what to do when Quake 3 or Team Arena pk3 files are missing. (Idea inspired by the org.ioquake3.ioquake3 Flatpak's message.)
The files to copy is set based on what files are missing and either a range ("pak3.pk3" through "pak8.pk3") or a list of a pk3s ("pak0.pk3", "pak7.pk3", and "pak8.pk3").
I tested it displayed okay on Linux (zenity), Windows, and macOS. I only took screenshots from Linux.
The error message contains a URL so I made the Windows fatal error dialog "copy to clipboard" option include the error message like Unix-like platform's crashlog.txt.
