#14257 new defect
GLK: SCOTT: fatal() and GlkExit() do return

Description
The Scott::fatal() method is supposed to print an error message and then exit, but seems to return after calling GlkExit(), which is also not supposed to return.
This causes an assert: "Assertion failed: (idx < _size), function operator[], file array.h, line 234" after showing the "Unsupported game! [press any key to exit]" message when trying to run an unsupported game.
The expected behaviour would be to either return to the launcher or exit ScummVM cleanly.

I seems that pretty much any file you give a .saga extension will be detected by ScummVM as "Scott Adams IF Game".

Excellent!
Perhaps we should file a separate bug report or feature request about the fact that the detection code is too permissive in assuming that any .saga file is a valid Scott Adams game.

Looked into the code, and it really has no checking for .saga, but not sure if this is by design(intentional) or actually a bug.
How to reproduce this? What kind of games/files make scumm give unsupported game, please elaborate.
