Pull request overview

This PR updates the Windows 11 Start Menu Styler mod to v1.6 by adding a new side-by-side Start menu layout mode (with independently scrollable pinned/apps areas), expanding the style-variable expression language, and refreshing/adding themes to align with the redesigned Start menu.

Changes:

  • Add a new newLayoutSideBySide layout option and implement runtime visual-tree restructuring to separate pinned-items scrolling from the apps list.
  • Extend style substitution expressions with comparison operators and a ternary conditional operator (cond ? a : b) with short-circuit evaluation.
  • Update multiple built-in themes to use the new layout behavior and add a new FullScreen theme.
