Getting NotepadStarter works with installed notepad++

With the installed version of notepad++, the plugins directory is at the
different place, so we need to handle this condition.

This release can works with Notepad++ plugin manager.

Introduction

This tool designed as a Notepad++ plugin by Yonggang Luo, when
it installed as a Notepad++ plugin or running NotepadStarter.exe in the Notepad++ app
directory, it's will automatically replace the system default notepad.exe application with
Notepad++ (Without need for removing anything from the windows system.). It's tested
under Windows 7, but Windows XP should also works.

This tool is based on the sources from npplauncher
by [Stepho,2005] and npplauncher at sf
by Mattes H. Mattesh,2013.

Design

NotepadStarter make use of a debugger feature in Windows the system will call a hooked
process with appended parameters to allow debugging the intended application.
This hook application will be call whenever the correct application was resolved.

notepad.exe receives always only one parameter which is now just deferred to Notepad++.
Because notepad.exe is a blocking executable, so NotepadStarter behaves blocking as notepad.exe.
Notepad++ have multiple tab page, so NotepadStarter will terminated when the corresponding
tab page closed or the corresponding Notepad++ application is closed.

Release

Use Plugin Manager to release NotepadStarter
