Fancy new UI

This is a major re-write of the program.

Key changes include:

• UI is built using Avalonia UI, running on Windows and Linux alike
• Following Fluent2 design guidelines with the focus on Windows 11 experience
• Fallback icons font is provided by Font Awesome
• Light/Dark theme support following the system settings

Thank you to everyone who helped with testing random stuff to make this release possible.

Removed features:

• An ability to select custom IRD/disc key through UI was removed (you can still put it in IRD cache folder, but this is virtually useless)

Some features are still missing:

• No trimming or AOT is applied for now, so the executable size is significantly larger

Known issues:

• Scroll position in Settings will reset to the last active element after unfocusing and refocusing the window
• Window Minimize button highlight is using background from the Light theme (can't fix it)
• Background threads can freeze the UI for a second in some circumstances
• Linux backend is using X, so you can experience issues under Wayland with HiDPI screen

[Edit] Binaries were updated to include a snapshot of redump disc keys (only critical when you don't have internet access)
