Komac, the Kotlin program for creating Winget packages, has now been rewritten in Rust

In other news, URLs are now delimited by a space rather than a comma when updating manifests. Komac uses a very small amount amount of memory and has been heavily optimised to minimise memory usage (especially heap allocations). Updating Android Studio (a 1GB+ binary) consistently took just ~3.5mb memory. Komac now has a significantly more accurate way of checking if an installer was created with Inno/NSIS instead of just checking for some magic bytes. As of this release, the uncompressed x64 portable binary stands at just ~7.5mb and doesn't require runtimes like the JVM. The Windows installers add Komac to path (allowing you to just run komac in a terminal) and stand at less than 3.5mb.
