Release v1.0 · ramensoftware/windhawk

Added a changelog tab for mods.
Added an "Advanced" tab for mods with debug logging functionality, easy settings exporting, and options to override the mod's target processes.
Added advanced settings with an option to hide the tray icon, an option to exclude processes from Windhawk, and several other options.
Added the mod initialization dialog, which shows information about mods which take a long time to initialize. A common reason for that is symbol downloading, in which case the download progress is shown.
Added the Loaded Mods dialog which can be accessed from the tray icon's right click menu.
Added an exit option without UAC in case something goes wrong, can be used by holding Shift and right clicking on the tray icon.
Running the Windhawk UI no longer requires UAC.

Updated to VSCodium 1.74.2 and LLVM MinGW 15.0.0.
The compiler now uses C++20 and includes WinRT headers.
Added mod preview to the editing mode.
Better syntax highlighting for special Windhawk comment blocks (readme, settings) in the code editor.
Updated the new mod template, inspired by Kyle Halladay's X64 Function Hooking by Example guide.
Extended the function hooking API, now hooks can be created and removed at any time.
Added decorated symbols to the symbols enumeration API.
Improved editor indentation and formatting rules.

Removed the confusing suggestion to download a language pack for non-English Windows versions. Windhawk still doesn't have proper support for localization.
Improved compatibility with Firefox.
Fixed an incorrect update notification after updating to the latest version.
Fixed an incorrect memory free which caused tools such as Application Verifier to show a warning. The bug was harmless in practice aside from the warning with development tools.
Fixed unnecessary mod reloading if FALSE is returned in Wh_ModInit.
Updating a disabled mod no longer enables it.
