Subject: [PATCH] Extract the manifest from main and add dpiAware=false setting
Forcing the application to dpi unware status allows Windows to apply
the window scaling set by the user in the control panel. Icons and bitmaps
that were previously too small to be usable are now scaled suitably.
Other platforms are unaffected by this change.
