Mainmenu game-related changes (#11887)

fixes:
* Switching between games does not immediately hide creative mode / damage buttons if so specified
* World creation menu has a game selection list even though the menu already provides a gamebar
* Showing gameid in world list is unnecessary
* Choice of mapgen parameters in menu persists between games (and was half-broken)
