Fix#10266, fix#10365
This commit adds the ability of RTL/LTR per document (tab), and memorizes RTL setting of each file in the session.xml.
It also adds an attribute "editZoneRTL" in localization XML file. if "RTL" attribute is present and its value is "yes", then user can add "editZoneRTL" attribute beside, and set the value of the attribute in question to "no", so Notepad++ GUI will be RTL, but Scintilla zone will be LTR by opening files. Of course, user can set any direction they want afterward, and what they have set on document will be remembered across the sessions.

New specs of NPPM_GETNBSESSIONFILES (which is retro-compatible):
======================
NPPM_GETNBSESSIONFILES
Retrieves the number of files to load in the session sessionFileName. sessionFileName should be a full path name of an xml file.
Parameters:
wParam [out]
BOOL* isValidXML, if this pointer is null, then this parameter will be ignored. TRUE if XML is valid, otherwise FALSE.
lParam [in]
const TCHAR * sessionFileName
Return value:
Returns 0 if sessionFileName is an empty string/NULL, or XML session file is corrupted/invalid, else the number of files.
======================
Other minor improvements:
- checking also for a possible ShellExecute errors
- removing the isAllSuccessful boolean, as it is no longer needed.

If the user enables the option "Remember inaccessible files from past session" (disabled by default), and an opened session (the default session "session.xml" or a user session) contains one or several inaccessible files, a message dialog will appear, giving the user the choice to open or not open the placeholders. If the user chooses to open them, empty and read-only documents will be opened as placeholders for these inaccessible files.
Fix#12079, fix#12744, fix#13696, close#14252
Add the ability of "placrholders" (the empty document) for the inaccessible files of past session.
The inaccessible files from the current (default) session (i.e., session.xml) will not be lost in the next startup of Notepad++.
Furthermore, if file status detection is enabled in Notepad++ (default setting: ON), and the previously inaccessible files become accessible again (e.g., USB drive is inserted or network drive is remounted), the resurrected files can be reloaded on-the-fly without restarting Notepad++. The user will be prompted to reload if the placeholder is switched in.

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, <, >, | , ").

Background: because styling large file can cause the performance issue, 200 MB (and bigger) file is not applied to its language (if any) while loading.
This PR makes large file restriction for styling and for other features (smart highlighting, brace match, etc...) configurable via the section Performance of Preferences dialog.

Here is the behaviour of this commit:
1. If there's only one file dirty, and it's current editing one, then SaveAll dialog won't display.
2. If there's only one file dirty, and it's NOT current editing one, then SaveAll dialog WILL display.
3. If there's 1 editing file which is dirty, and its clone (dirty also) is on the other view, then SaveAll dialog WILL display.

In Scintilla4 reloaded document keeps its syntax highlighting without re-applying the lexer for its syntax highlighting.
It seems the behaviour has been changed in Scintilla5. Hence this workaround to force to apply syntax highlighting after reloading.

If user tries to save a existing file as file itself by using "Save As" command,
then he/she chooses the same file from the Save As file dialog,
* old wrong behaviour: "Save As" action is rejected with the message "The file is already opened in Notepad++".
* new correct behaviour: "Save As" action is allowed.

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.
