Support apps with launchers, do not lose icons and more

[BrianLima]

Hi people, hope you all are well
Sorry for delaying this new release for so long, had a lot going on this past year, and could not get up to all these issues, but i finally bring good news:

• Added support to apps that use launchers (EG: Forza Horizon 5, MSFS...), thanks @novemberdobby for the contribution
  • Some apps would not "stay open" on the Steam profile status, this fixes most games in this case, i have not tested ALL games, but the most recurring ones seems to be working fine and dandy.

• Fix shortcuts icons disappearing, by moving them to a transient directory at %APPDATA%
  • As pointed by some of our users, when apps updated, their icons would disappear from Steam and from desktop shortcuts, to fix this, we now will copy the icon to a folder for UWPHook at %AppData%, which will prevent the icons from disapearing. YOU MUST RE-IMPORT YOUR GAMES WITH THE NEW VERSION FOR THIS TO WORK!
• Automatically restart Steam when finishing the import process
  • KNOWN ISSUE: Sometimes Steam will refuse to start with an error Failed to load SteamUI.dll, just click ok and manually relaunch Steam.
• Improve error handling when getting non-positive responses from SteamGridDB
• Updated to .NET 4.8 and a lot of dependencies of the project
• Improved the installer/uninstaller
