This pull request fixes a bug where the --hotkey command-line argument was incorrectly disabled when the --no_csv flag was used. This prevented users from using hotkeys to control recording unless a CSV file was being generated.

The fix removes the logic in CommandLine.cpp that erroneously linked hotkey support to CSV output, ensuring that hotkeys function independently.
Verification

To confirm the fix, a new unit test, HotkeyWithoutCsv, has been added to Tests/CommandLineTests.cpp. This test:

Launches PresentMon with both --no_csv and a --hotkey argument.
Simulates the specified hotkey press.
Captures the console output and asserts that the "Started recording" message is present, confirming the hotkey was processed correctly.

This test was added to address the code review feedback and ensure the fix is verifiable.

Note: While the fix and the corresponding test case have been implemented, I was unable to compile and run the test suite due to persistent build environment issues. The changes are logically sound, but will require verification by running the tests in a configured environment.

This commit introduces a new Windows batch script, `build.bat`, to fully automate the build process described in `BUILDING.md`.

The script handles:
- Cloning and bootstrapping vcpkg
- Installing required vcpkg packages
- Building the Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF) from a user-provided directory
- Installing NPM dependencies for the UI
- Creating and installing a test certificate
- Building the main Visual Studio solution

This script significantly simplifies the setup for new and existing developers, reducing the chance of manual errors.

The `BUILDING.md` file has also been updated to document the usage of this new script.
This commit corrects the download URL for the Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF) dependency in the GitHub Actions CI workflow.

The previous URL pointed to version 139, which was incorrect. This has been updated to point to the correct version 136, as specified in the project's build documentation.

The cache key for the CEF dependency has also been updated from `v139` to `v136` to reflect this change.
fix: Update CEF download link in CI workflow
This commit fixes a bug where the `--hotkey` command-line argument was ignored when `--no_csv` was also specified.

The `CommandLine.cpp` file has been modified to remove the logic that disabled hotkey support when CSV output was disabled.

A test case has been added to `Tests/CommandLineTests.cpp` to verify that the hotkey functionality works as expected when `--no_csv` is used.

Note: Due to issues with the build environment, I was unable to compile and run the tests to verify the fix. The test case has been implemented based on the code review feedback and is expected to pass.
