Change incorrect information regarding updater TADs

The '''SystemUpdater''' is a collection of SRL files that allow you to update an IS-TWL-DEBUGGER or DSi Panda. These were mainly used for development consoles, and they do not work on retail units.

The features for this cartridge are very simple. The cartridge contains updates for all regions (including China and Korea since v1.4) and they will be installed when selected. When a region has been selected, all the data will be deleted from the NAND and devsigned TAD's will be installed. Unlike regular TWL carts and exploits that do not have NAND access, this one does. If done correctly, the tickets, TWLCFG0.dat, TWLCFG1.dat and the system menu, with the bundled DSi applications have been installed. [[TwlNmenu]] and [[NandFiler]] are optional.

The cartridge can also detect if you're on a Panda or Debugger. If 16MB of memory is found, it will be listed as '''TWL CONSOLE''' (Panda, IS-TWL-CAPTURE).

==Uniquely signed TADs==
The TAD files in NitroFS are not development signed<ref>[https://randommeaninglesscharacters.com/dsidev/twlsystemupdater.html Twl SystemUpdater (rmc)]</ref>. Rather than being signed with "maketad.exe" like most TADs, these are signed with "maketad_updater.exe" which uses an unknown key. Because of this the TAD files cannot currently be decrypted back into SRLs.

*Holding SELECT and A at the same time when continuing an update skips the installation for TwlNmenu and NandFiler.

*Instead of the version number being (eg.) v1.4E, it says v1.4E_dev, notifying you it has been updated using a SystemUpdater cartridge.

*The dev-version cannot import or export .bin files from the system settings like a retail unit. It can only delete applications, therefore, TwlNmenu must be used.
