[Bug/Regression] Lack of Connect to IP functionality

[mempler]

Summary

Right now, on GTA 5 Legacy, you were able to connect directly to an IP using the connect command in the console. This is now no longer possible, as the Launcher itself is no longer Tied to the client.

Steps to Reproduce

GTA 5 Enhanced + FiveM lacks this entirely

Expected Behavior

1. Launch Game
2. Launch Server in WSL2 (assuming Ubuntu 26.04)
3. Grab IP Address of WSL2 guest using ip a, usually eth0 adapter, E.g, the bogus Address 10.16.0.2
4. Go to Game
5. Press F8
6. Enter connect <wsl2 ip address> (or a button on the interface)

Actual Behavior

GTA 5 Enhanced + FiveM lacks this entirely

Evidence

Sometimes, it doesn't even detect that the server is alive / lack of localhost option.

Additional Context

On Windows, specifically WSL2, using the Default Nat network, you cannot connect to localhost due to lack of UDP routing for localhost:port -> WSL2 Guest. To bypass this issue, you were able to simply get the IP of the WSL2 guest (depending on distro, usually ìp a`) and directly connect to that IP Address.

In the server browser search bar, you can enter >localhost or >1.2.3.4 (any IP) and it will initiate a connection to it.
