They still will, but RPCS3 will not crash if param.sfo is marked as Read Only, so now game can be prevented from "commiting suicide" this way

Mark it as [Testers Needed] because we definitely want to know about more games with this issue. |

This is a workaround for #7373. With this change, RPCS3 will continue to function correctly when param.sfo is marked as read only and thus can't be rewritten. DO NOT MERGE!
While this of course is not a correct fix, it allows "suicidal" games to be played more than once by marking their
param.sfoas read only.
