Add '2 Player' tag to all 2+ player games, tag only 3+ player games as Multiplayer

Respectfully, I take issue with two player games being pulled as 'multiplayer' games.

I interpret multi-player as meaning 3+ players. When I've got a group of friends over and we're looking for actual multi-player games, I don't want two player games popping up in the list when I filter them.

Accurate data is important, and when you have it, it's a waste not to use it.

    I've put some more thought into this.

    There aren't enough multiplayer games to justify splitting them up any more than necessary. The 'Multiplayer' tag is fine, so long as a game has 3+ players. If it only has 2, the 'play mode' should be 2 player. Additionally, all Multiplayer games should get the 'Two Player' tag right alongside it, by default - that way, if you filter for 2 Player, you get everything, but if you filter for Multiplayer, you only get games that are actually Multiplayer (3+ players). '

    The reasoning behind this change is so that people can quickly find 3+ player games (and nothing but).

    Single Player' should be called 1 player.
