This PR removes the utf8 bom encoding header which was causing issues.
This PR also adds support for unicode characters in the terminal on
windows.
For context it looks like the BeamNG launcher only encodes it with the
utf8 header, which is what it's currently removing.

This PR removes mid-line ini comments which were causing issue because
users had `#` and `;` in their file path.

Previously, it used argv[0] for the execution path, which is fine in
most cases, but in my case, it is not.
The thing is, I use NixOS, and I have created a Nix module for BeamMP.
When running BeamMP-Launcher, it tries to check for updates, and fails
because of the SHA hash.
There are other ways around this, such as setting the execution
directory, but I think this is a far clearer approach

This PR makes the launcher update more reliable by downloading the
update to a "new_BeamMP-Launcher.exe" file, instead of the launcher
renaming itself to a backup (effectively bricking itself and the
shortcut) and then hoping the download doesn't fail.

Current Steam installations seem to have a much cleaner filesystem
layout on Debian while older ones look quite different.
Older Debian installations ~/.steam/root points to ~/.steam while newer
ones point to ~/.steam/debian-installation and hence BeamMP cannot find
integrity.json. 'steamapps' is at ~/.steam/debian-installation in newer
installations.
On the older installations, 'steamapps' is at ~/.steam/steam/steamapps.

This PR changes everything relating to file system paths to use
std::wstring instead of std::string. This allows for non-latin
characters to be in the user's path, for example in their windows
username.
- [x] Convert windows code to use wstring
- [x] Fix linux build
- [x] Fix hashing
