Describe the content

I noticed a peculiar part of the output like Packages: 8 (steam), which thought was really weird since i definitely have way more than 8 games installed through Steam. i had originally thought that somehow this means 8 items in my steam library come with command-line tools, but that isn't the case. it's simply that the fetch script only looks at three predefined library locations. this isn't very useful on my system, because i keep my Steam library on a separate mountpoint with some terabytes worth of storage, so i never have to worry about it. i keep my entire steam library there. in the default library, only a couple things are installed, most notably several proton versions, my steam controller configs, the steam linux runtime, Steamworks, and barely any games. i could replicate the count from hyfetch using for p in .local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/*/; echo $p; end | wc -l (fish syntax) outputting 8, whereas the more accurate count can be gotten with for p in /mnt/games/Steam/steamapps/common/*/; echo $p; end | wc -l which outputs 232, a much more reasonable number.

hyfetch should understand where my other steam libraries are, and count them as part of the package total.
