UniGetUI 3.1.7 beta 1

[marticliment]

Caution

PreRelease builds may be unstable and should not be used on a production environment

General changes

• A new experimental change has been introduced, which makes UniGetUI consume near to 0% CPU when on background. This setting can be disabled from the settings, under experimental features.
• A new "Manual Scan" button has been added, so users can manually add more desktop shortcuts to automatically remove. (thanks @mrixner)
• After some analysis from the telemetry data, I was able to identify and fix some issues causing package operations to fail. The improvements apply to:
  • Chocolatey (fixed some hangs and improved operation output parsing)
  • Pip (removed deprecated flag and improved operation output parsing)
  • Vckpg (better vcpkg update and bootstrapping, significantly improving success rate)
  • .NET Tool (better global tool handling, mostly affecting new installs)
  • Scoop (better error detection and operation output parsing)
  • Cargo (usage of cargo-binstall for faster and more reliable install and update operations)
• Added a subtitle to the titlebar, what will inform the user when UniGetUI runs under special conditions (administrator, portable, etc.)
• Fixed a hard crash when UniGetUI can't write to the exe location in portable mode.
• Improvements to the UI Layout. Hidden pages will be detached from the root, instead of being hidden.
• Improvements to executable detection (for executables added to PATH)
• AppSdk was updated to 1.6.5

Installed to fix the scope issue when updating WinGet, thank-you, but noticed now that the tray icon remains showing the blue dot "update in progress" even after all updates are finished. Only changes if another update is detected later or restarting the application.

I will try to fix this
