This PR leverages a more modern Windows API to implement
`WindowsDispatcher`, aligning its implementation more closely with that
of the `macOS` platform. The following improvements have been made:
1. Similar to `macOS`, there is no longer a need to use `sender` and
`receiver` to dispatch a `Runnable` on the main thread.
2. There is also no longer a need to use an `Event` for synchronization.
3. Consistent with #7506 and #11269, `Runnable` is now executed with
high priority.
However, this PR raises the minimum Windows version requirement of
`GPUI` to Windows 10, specifically Windows 10 Fall Creators Update
(10.0.16299). However, the `alacritty_terminal` dependency in Zed relies
on `conPTY` on Windows, an API introduced in the Windows 10 Fall
Creators Update. Therefore, the impact of this PR on Zed should be
minimal. I'd like to hear your voices about this PR, especially about
the minimum Windows version bumping.

It seems that on the first frame after the system resumes from sleep,
`dcomp_vsync_fn` mistakenly detects the `timer_stop_event` triggering
and exits the loop.

This fixes restart after updates not working on Linux.
On Linux we can't reliably get the binary path after an update, because
the original binary was deleted and the path will contain ` (deleted)`.
See: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/69343
We *could* strip ` (deleted)` off, but that feels nasty. So instead we
save the original binary path, before we do the installation, then
restart.
Later on, we can also change this to be a _new_ binary path returned by
the installers, which we then have to start.

This aligns the Windows platform implementation with a code style
similar to macOS platform, eliminating most of the `Cell`s and
`Mutex`es. This adjustment facilitates potential future porting to a
multi-threaded implementation if required.
Overall, this PR made the following changes: it segregated all member
variables in `WindowsPlatform` and `WindowsWindow`, grouping together
variables that remain constant throughout the entire app lifecycle,
while placing variables that may change during app runtime into
`RefCell`.
Edit:
During the code refactoring process, a bug was also fixed.
**Before**:
Close window when file has changed, nothing happen:

**After**:
Now `should_close` callback is properly handled

Notable things I've had to fix due to 1.78:
- Better detection of unused items
- New clippy lint (`assigning_clones`) that points out places where assignment operations with clone rhs could be replaced with more performant `clone_into`

This PR extracts the `SemanticVersion` out of `util` and into its own
`SemanticVersion` crate.
This allows for making use of `SemanticVersion` without needing to pull
in some of the heavier dependencies included in the `util` crate.
As part of this the public API for `SemanticVersion` has been tidied up
a bit.

Now `Zed` can display icons. The image below shows the icon of the
`zed.exe` file and the icon in the right-click properties.

I used the `crates\zed\resources\app-icon@2x.png` file to generate the
`.ico` file. Due to some blank space around the logo in the original
file, the logo appears slightly smaller on Windows compared to other
software.

The current `.ico` file contains logo files of multiple sizes: 16x16,
24x24, 32x32, 48x48, 64x64, 96x96, 128x128, 256x256, 512x512.

Tested on my laptop, and I've noticed that when I move the window,
`WindowsPlatform::displays()` is being continuously called. Is this
intended?

### Description
Currently, there are some issues with input handling on Windows:
#### 1. Direct crash when encountering IME input.
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/assets/14981363/598f7272-1948-4a42-99c5-2ef7b9162a1e
#### 2. Handling messages every 1/60 seconds in the main thread. Despite
being named "immediate_handle," it's not exactly immediate.
```rust
// actually halt here
let wait_result =
unsafe { DCompositionWaitForCompositorClock(Some(&[self.inner.event]), INFINITE) };
// compositor clock ticked so we should draw a frame
if wait_result == 1 {
unsafe { invalidate_thread_windows(GetCurrentThreadId()) };
while unsafe { PeekMessageW(&mut msg, HWND::default(), 0, 0, PM_REMOVE) }.as_bool()
```
#### 3. According to Windows recommendations, character input should be
obtained using `WM_CHAR` instead of `WM_KEYDOWN`. Additionally, there
are problems with the handling within `WM_CHAR`.
```rust
fn handle_char_msg(&self, wparam: WPARAM) -> LRESULT {
let mut callbacks = self.callbacks.borrow_mut();
if let Some(callback) = callbacks.input.as_mut() {
let modifiers = self.current_modifiers();
let msg_char = wparam.0 as u8 as char; // these are u16 chars, cant treat them as u8
```
And, we don't handle `WM_SYSKEYDOWN` properly, which leads to `Alt + F4`
not working.

On Windows, some windows may be created that are not managed by the
application.
For example, the Japanese IME creates pop-ups like this one.
<img width="325" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/assets/6465609/503aaa0a-7568-485a-a138-e689ae67001c">
The internal data associated with such a window is different from
`WindowsWindowInner` and will crash if referenced.
Therefore, before calling `try_get_window_inner`, it checks if it is an
owned window.

Also adds a new command `cli: Register Zed Scheme` that will cause URLs
to be opened in the current zed version, and we call this implicitly if
you install the CLI
Also add some status reporting to install cli
Fixes: #8857
Release Notes:
- Added success/error reporting to `cli: Install Cli`
([#8857](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/8857)).
- Removed `zed-{preview,nightly,dev}:` url schemes (used by channel
links)
- Added `cli: Register Zed Scheme` to control which zed handles the
`zed://` scheme (defaults to the most recently installed, or
the version that you last used `cli: Install Cli` with)
