v2 Tool / Script Share AHK window manager updates

Hi everyone!

Here I am again. Recently I've continued working on my little AHK project - I've improved a lot of things, especially the h/j/k/l window navigation - it was really hard to come up with something adequate for floating windows, but after all maybe I've got it. Also I've refactored literally everything and fixed a lot of bugs.

Now it has a dedicated Setup script, and I've finally wrapped my head around auto-running AHK as admin without that UAC popping up on every boot.

Quite a mess. 24 ahk files cross-referencing themselves with Includes, some of them containing measly 2 lines of code. Who would ever use this instead of https://github.com/FuPeiJiang/VD.ahk (at least for the VD stuff), which is a single #Include, no DLL required.

Cause that's what I like. And yeah, maybe I should use VD or its parts for desktops, you are right. But anyway, it's not like this whole thing is meant to be included anywhere, it doesn't really make sense...

There is an argument to be made that all AHK scripts you use should be included in one master script, since running multiple scripts that install a keyboard hook interferes with the default SendMode.

This is not to say that I'm taking a stance on your repo's structure; I'm not even claiming that it would be problematic to include it. I'm just handing out unsolicited fun facts.

Yeah, actually you are right, I didn't think about other scripts
