Bug description:
There's at least one case where the automatic path setting done by Util::initialize isn't desirable. That is when user want's to run multiple instances of (Linux)DC++ or temporarily wants a different config for testing etc.

The patch adds optional map parameter for Util::initialize from which the non-empty paths are used instead of autodetected ones. Also provides protection against dcpp::startup for resetting explicitly given values (which apparently isn't really needed with 7.60 core since startup isn't doing it anymore). 

Patch only affects non-_WIN32 and common blocks.
