Nexus LU Launcher

<ul>
 <li>Fixed archive-based patches failing to copy files.</li>
 <li>Fixed client crashing due to UGCSERVERIP not being set.</li>
 <li>Fixed Steam One-Click Patch not forcing maximized window.</li>
 </ul>

<ul>
 <li>Added Steam One-Click patch. It will add the launcher to Steam, prompt to set the controller layout, and disable fullscreen from the settings (meant for Steam Deck while in game mode). When not used in Flatpak, this patch restarts Steam after adding the non-Steam game entry.</li>
 <li>Added user-provided patch archives for replacing files.</li>
 <li>Added locale toggle for en_US, de_DE, and en_GB.</li>
 <li>Added localization by SardiTime.</li>
 <li>Attempting to change client locations with the Flatpak version of the launcher will now display an error.</li>
 <li>Fixed slow performance when loading logs after extracting the client.</li>
 </ul>

<ul>
 <li>Added checking archive signatures for known good clients.</li>
 <li>Added experimental parallel extract option. It is disabled by default and can only be changed in the launcher.json file. It should be left at 1 on hard drive-based installs, and should be kept low on slow CPUs, systems with low RAM, and systems that do not have &gt;=2Gbps storage devices.</li>
 <li>Added launcher logs to client logs after client starts.</li>
 <li>Fixed packed clients crashing on start due to not copying version files.</li>
 <li>Fixed launcher being stuck in the launching state when the client fails to start.</li>
 <li>Fixed launcher being stuck when launching on the Steam Deck (SteamOS) in game mode.</li>
 <li>Fixed logs not being viewable when changing views after launching.</li>
 <li>Fixed macOS building due to Apple linker issue.</li>
 </ul>

<ul>
 <li>Completely rewrote the internal state management to be easier to understand and maintain.</li>
 <li>Changed patches state management to allow background loading, which improves launcher start times.</li>
 <li>Migrated to .NET 8 with ahead-of-time (AOT), which improves launcher start times and the binary file size.</li>
 <li>Added internal support for localization. No toggle is provided yet. It will be added in a future update if German translations are provided.</li>
 <li>Added internal logging.</li>
 <li>Added Flatpak support for Linux.</li>
 <li>Updated macOS WINE automatic download.</li>
 <li>Breaking change: The format for storing versions of installed patches has changed. Mod Loader, Tcp/Udp Shim, and Auto Tcp/Udp Shim will show as having an update when they are already up to date.</li>
 </ul>
