feat: Better Windows Support

[nlogozzo]

• Adds support for both raw and noritake outputs on Windows systems.
  • Supports raw_target:
    • If /dev/stdout --> stdout will be used
    • Else --> a named pipe will be created for output
• Adds argument support for Windows CLI (i.e. -p, -h, etc...)
• Adds loading config file from Windows home directory and with -p argument
• Includes default config and shader files as embedded resources and writes them to disk when missing (similar to INCTXT on Linux but using native Windows resources)

Here's raw working:

Ready for review! Sorry in advanced for my messy code, I'm a C++ dev not C dev haha. These changes will help me bring my previous linux-only app that uses cava to Windows!

Passing tests here: https://github.com/nlogozzo/cava/actions/runs/13223157589

I am building the program in visual studio. The libpthread.dll and glew.dll are not copied into cava_win\cava\x64\Debug directory. Am I missing something?

[karlstav]

@Biswa96 they are supposed to be automatically downloaded by some nuget stuff. If you still are having problems, open a separate issue, comments in here will drown.
