Currently we cannot accept e.g. the "\\?\C:\file.", but when someone tries to open the standard variant 'C:\file.', we should accept that, as this is the way how to work with filenames without an extension.

Use reference instead of copy for the sorting result.
Also improve lines sorting performance slightly: Sorting a 200 MB text file takes 13.71 seconds instead of 14.63 seconds.

Implement support for Win32 Namespace prefixed file name in Notepad++.
(Ref: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/fileio/naming-a-file#win32-file-namespaces)
Support the Win32-filenames escaped by \\?\ or \\?\UNC\, possible globbing in filenames (\\?\C:\fil?.txt) and shell links (\\?\C:\file.txt.lnk) included.
Unsupported (temporarily - it needs further patches for Notepad++):
- any raw filename with length exceeding the MAX_PATH.
- any nonstandard Windows OS filename: with 'dot' or 'space' char(s) at the name end, WinOS reserved ones: AUX, CON, PRN, NUL, COM1-9, LPT1-9 and the ones with invalid ASCII chars in it (0-31, <, >, | , ").

A new ability for checking plugins' compatibility with running Notepad++ has been added in Plugin List & Plugin Admin (a06b404708).
This PR extends this ability by using Plugin Admin's plugin list to filter plugins to load - if any plugin to load with **the same folder name**, **the same version** (as in the plugin list) and it's **not compatible** with the running Notepad++ version found while loading plugins, it will be skipped for being loaded.

This PR allows users to provide the list of excluding folder names/patterns in "Filters" field.
Eclusion operator is alway "!" at the begining. In order to distinguish folder from file, "\" should be used as prefix of the folder name/pattern, following "!". That allows the exclusion of the directories under the root directory you want to search (the 1st level of matched directories).
If users need to exclude folders with the same name (or names matched the specific pattern) in all levels, the + should be put between "!" and "\" to exclude them recursively.
Here is a sample:
Filters: *.* !\bin !+\test !+\log*
Directory: c:\myProject\
So the excluded directories could be:
c:\myProject\bin\
c:\myProject\log\
c:\myProject\logs\
c:\myProject\src\log4j\
c:\myProject\test\
c:\myProject\src\test\
The following directories will not be excluded:
c:\myProject\foo\tests\
c:\myProject\foo\bin\
Note that "inclusion of folder" is not allowed, and such pattern will be ignored.

These logs are written for debugging NUL file-corruption issue (#6133) and session lost issue (#10402) which are still problematic probably.
The writting log info will be triggered only when Windows notifies Notepad++ to end session.
The log file will be in "%APPDATA%\Notepad++\" or in Notepad++ installation folder if doLocalConf.xml is present.
To disable the log, just remove nppLogNulContentCorruptionIssue.xml.

And add log ability for debugging network drive file status detection issue.
To activate log, user should:
1. Add an empty "nppLogNetworkDriveIssue.xml" file beside of notepad++.exe, or if user has no admin previlege, he/she can add this file into %APPDATA%\Notepad++\.
2. Create "C:\temp\" directory, if it doesn't exist yet.
3. Start notepad++.exe, and wait for the file status (timestamp) detection error from the network drive. If the errors occur, there should be some trace in "C:\temp\nppLogNetworkDriveIssue.log".
People who have had the network drive file status detection issue in #10688, #10753, #10757, #10751 & #10787 are welcome to download the binary and provide the generated log in order to fix this issue.

1. Rename CFile to Win32_IO_File (plus some modification in class).
2. Add new method writeStr() in Win32_IO_File class to write "char*" & string.
3. Change method names of Utf8_16_Write class and make writeFile() method return accurate type (boolean).

And use modern CustomFileDialog istead of old FileDialog in Notepad++.
In the file dialog, override window procedure for "OK" button and
file name edit box to check for input.
Transform forward slash file name to a Window path after input.
Fix#9374, close#9403

Use CustomFileDialog in folderBrowser().
Affected areas:
- Search > Find in Files
- File > Open Folder as Workspace
- Preferences > Default Directory
- Preferences > Backup > Custom Backup
- Preferences > Cloud & Link

1. Add an option for displying constant line number width in Preferences dialog.
This option set the line number constant width according the total line number in the document (minimun 4 digits).
It ensures no unexpected visual effect while scrolling content vertically.
If the document content is modified and the total number of lines is increased or decreased, more digits will be added or removed according the number of digits in total number of lines.
2. Add new plugin messages NPPM_GETLINENUMBERWIDTHMODE & NPPM_SETLINENUMBERWIDTHMODE for getting or setting LINENUMWIDTH_DYNAMIC / LINENUMWIDTH_CONSTANT.
So plugins may send NPPM_SETLINENUMBERWIDTHMODE message with LINENUMWIDTH_CONSTANT to Notepad++ for avoiding some unexpected visual effect (while scrolling).
