On Windows, the directory selector was limited to browsing within the user's home directory (C:\Users\<username>). This made it impossible to open projects on other drives like D:\ or outside the user profile. Changes: - Add isAbsolutePath() to detect Windows drive letters and Unix paths - Add getSearchRoot() to extract search directory from absolute paths - Modify fetchDirs() to search from absolute paths when detected - Update placeholder text to hint absolute path support Fixes #6490
…cate projects On Windows, file paths are case-insensitive but the project deduplication check used strict equality (===). This caused the same directory opened with different casing (e.g., C:\Users vs c:\Users) to appear as separate entries in the sidebar. Added isWindows() and pathsEqual() helper functions that perform case-insensitive comparison on Windows while maintaining case-sensitive comparison on other platforms.

Tested on Windows 11 - opening the same directory with different path casing no longer creates duplicate sidebar entries.
