Fix Windows errors preventing startup / port over macOS only functions

[richiemcilroy]

Right now on local dev for Windows there's a bunch of errors on startup.

Most of these are related to some functions being macOS only - needing a Windows version.

Need to start the desktop app locally on Windows, and fix any errors that flag up / prevent the app from running.

Some macOS only functions will need to be ported over to Windows.

You can get through this quite quick, function by function, using Cursor + Claude 3.5 Sonnet.

Please DM me on Discord if you run into any issues or need help.

#110 Solves this.
Currently missing:

• (WIP) native-looking window caption controls on Windows
• Handle getting cursor image (Cursor type already implemented)
• App windows are missing shadows (Not sure the best way to implement this yet, I would like to avoid having to use the css trick, needs more research as I don't recall seeing any Windows apps that have shadows the way I want with a custom border radius)

Known issues on Windows:

• Editor not rendering the screen recording
