Adds support for an initial directory in folder picker

Enhances the modern folder browser to accept and open to a specified initial directory.

This improves the user experience by starting the "Browse for Drivers" dialog in the project's 'Drivers' subfolder, reducing the need for manual navigation. The implementation uses the Win32 API to create a shell item from the initial path and set it as the dialog's starting folder.
