* Even if this makes the resulting executable slightly larger, this should help
with troubleshooting, especially for the Windows Store releases.
* Also drop the "since 2019" from the Downloads badge, since once you reach 100M
the start date for the counter becomes a bit meaningless...
* Remove last ditch effort on systems that are clearly broken for localization
and always report an explicit error to the user.
* Also update GitHub Actions actions/checkout (Closes#2036).
* INetworkListManager appears to depend on specific services to be able to work,
which one can actually disable while still getting full Internet connectivity.
* If that is the case, HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(ERROR_SERVICE_DEPENDENCY_FAIL) will be
returned, therefore we add a fallback to using InternetGetConnectedState(), which
does not have such dependencies (but has other limitations per b2492908be)
when we detect a dependency error.
* Also take this opportunity to switch to using INetworkListManager::get_IsConnectedToInternet().
* Also fix Coverity breakage due to Synopsys having upgraded their toolchain.
* Closes#1801
* I don't have time for this bullshit. Of course the irony is that a Microsoft product (CodeQL)
hosted on a Microsoft platform (GitHub) hasn't been updated to work with the latest Microsoft
compiler (VS2022).
* Also removed the stuff CodeQL complains about and updated README badges.
