v0.7.0.0: Playnite Integration, Dynamic Layouts, and Controller UX Enhancements

This release introduces direct integration with Playnite Fullscreen, brings a more responsive layout system that adapts to different screen sizes, and improves the overall controller navigation experience with new visual cues and rounded focus states.

✨ What's New in This Release

Playnite Support:
- Added support for launching Playnite Fullscreen directly.
- Enhanced the underlying launch engine to support direct executable execution with dynamic search paths.
Controller UX & Visual Enhancements:
- Added a global gamepad hint bar at the bottom of the screen (A for Select, B for Exit) for clearer navigation.
- Redesigned the platform card focus state with custom rounded-corner borders, replacing the standard system square focus visual for a more refined appearance.
- The "Exit" button in the Settings page has been removed, replaced by the global "B" button / mouse click exit hint.
Dynamic Grid Layout:
- The platform selection grid now automatically adjusts its columns based on the available window width, ensuring optimal card sizing across ultra-wide monitors, standard displays, and handheld devices.
Launch Reliability:
- Improved application exit synchronization during platform launch by monitoring foreground window changes, with a 5-second timeout safeguard.
- Added stricter validation for URI handlers to verify that the target executable exists, preventing false positives from orphaned registry keys.

v0.7.0.0：Playnite 整合、動態版面配置與手把體驗提升

本次更新加入了對 Playnite 全螢幕模式的支援，並引入能適應不同螢幕寬度的動態版面配置系統。同時透過新增全域手把按鍵提示與圓角焦點視覺效果，提升了整體的控制器導覽體驗。

✨ 本次更新亮點

Playnite 支援：
- 新增對 Playnite 全螢幕模式 (Playnite Fullscreen) 的啟動支援。
- 增強底層啟動引擎，支援直接執行特定路徑或透過動態搜尋路徑 (Search Paths) 尋找的執行檔。
手把體驗與視覺優化：
- 於畫面底部新增全域手把按鍵提示列（A 鍵選取，B 鍵退出），提供更清晰的導覽指引。
- 重新設計平台卡片的焦點狀態，以自訂的圓角邊框取代系統預設的直角焦點框，提供更精緻的視覺外觀。
- 移除設定頁面中的「退出」按鈕，改由全域提示列的 B 鍵或滑鼠點選觸發退出動作。
動態網格版面配置：
- 平台選取網格現在會根據視窗可用寬度自動調整欄數，確保在超寬螢幕、標準顯示器與掌機螢幕上皆能呈現最佳的卡片比例。
啟動可靠性：
- 改善平台啟動時的應用程式退出同步機制，透過監測前景視窗變化來決定退出時機，並加入 5 秒逾時保護。
- 加入更嚴格的 URI 處理常式驗證，確認目標執行檔真實存在，避免因軟體解除安裝殘留下機碼造成誤判。
