## Summary of the Pull Request
There are many build warnings now with like "cl : command line warning
D9047: option 'await' has been deprecated and will be re moved in a
future release." after we update to VS2026.
Introduce WinRT coroutine support by replacing `std::future` with
`IAsyncOperation` for asynchronous methods. Adjust output directories
and remove the `/await` option from project files to streamline the
build process. Update methods to utilize `std::expected` and `co_await`,
enhancing the async handling of version checks and downloads.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
Refactor async methods to improve performance and compatibility with
WinRT. The changes include modifying the return types of several
functions in the `updating` namespace, specifically
`uninstall_previous_msix_version_async`,
`get_github_version_info_async`, and `download_new_version_async`.
## Validation Steps Performed
Manual testing was conducted to ensure that the new async methods
function correctly and that the application behaves as expected during
version checks and downloads. Automated tests were updated to cover the
new coroutine implementations.

* General: re-implementing network error handling
* Remove unreferenced dead code
* Minor modification in the update procedure. Removing the code part which updates the UI before the real check on new version. UI will be updated after the real check is done.
* [Runner] CheckForUpdatesCallback function and ID_REPORT_BUG_COMMAND case in tray_icon moved to threads.
* [Runner] Bool flag added to bug report thread.
* [Runner] Bool flag added to CheckForUpdatesCallback thread.
* [Runner] Review comments added. Uncessary mutex removed. compare_exchange_strong is used for atomic_bool variable checks.
