Subject: [PATCH 2/5] feat: convert installer to WiX MSI (Installer-Wix)

Replace the legacy Visual Studio setup project (Installer/Installer.vdproj)
with a WiX Toolset v7 MSI in Installer-Wix/.

- Reuse the old UpgradeCode so the WiX MSI upgrades existing installs
- Harvest the app build output via <Files> (pdbs excluded); install to
  Program Files\SiCo\Task Separator 11
- Desktop + Start Menu shortcuts (per-user, ICE57-clean)
- Require the .NET 6 Desktop Runtime via a netfx launch condition
- Remove the old vdproj; add Installer-Wix to the solution

Build with Visual Studio / MSBuild.exe (the app's COM reference is not
supported by "dotnet build").

Subject: [PATCH 3/5] build: retarget app to .NET 10 and drop dead COM
 reference

- Retarget TaskSplitter11 and Splitter from EOL net6.0-windows to net10.0-windows (LTS)
- Remove the unused IWshRuntimeLibrary COM reference (shortcuts use WindowsShortcutFactory);
  the whole solution, including the WiX MSI, now builds with plain "dotnet build"
- Update the installer's .NET Desktop Runtime launch condition from 6.0 to 10.0

Subject: [PATCH 4/5] fix: create taskbar separator reliably by marshalling
 ShellExecute as Unicode

The "Create Separator" button silently did nothing: files and the shortcut
were created correctly, but no separator window ever appeared.

Root cause: the ShellExecute P/Invoke had no CharSet, so it defaulted to
CharSet.Ansi and bound to ShellExecuteA. The generated .lnk filenames use a
non-ANSI character, which cannot be represented in the ANSI code page and
degrades to '?'. ShellExecuteA was therefore handed a non-existent path and
returned HINSTANCE=2 (ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND), launching nothing -- with no
exception or error dialog.

Declaring CharSet=CharSet.Unicode binds to ShellExecuteW, which receives the
filename intact. Verified end-to-end: the separator window now launches on
every "Create Separator" click.

Subject: [PATCH 5/5] fix: restore corrupted separator shortcut character
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The shortcut-name character in GetNewLinkName was U+FFFD (the Unicode
replacement character) -- mojibake left over from an encoding round-trip. The
upstream original used '●' (U+25CF BLACK CIRCLE), an unobtrusive dot used as
the separator shortcut's label.

Restore the intended character but write it as a ● escape so the source
stays ASCII-safe and cannot be corrupted again by an editor saving with the
wrong encoding.
