Refactors the driver download logic for all manufacturers to first check for the existence of a final `.wim` archive. If a WIM file is found, the download and processing for that model is skipped, significantly improving performance on subsequent runs.
This change also resolves a potential type conversion error when processing driver mapping JSON files and corrects a minor typo in a log message.
Adds a `DriverMapping.json` file to automate driver injection during image deployment.
Driver download tasks now generate or update this mapping file with the relative path for each successfully downloaded driver package.
The deployment script now uses this file to automatically detect and select the correct drivers for the target hardware, removing the need for manual selection. The manual driver selection prompt is retained as a fallback.
Implements a dedicated mutex to serialize MSI extraction operations. This prevents race conditions when multiple driver packages are processed in parallel by different tasks.
Adds a post-extraction verification step to ensure the target directory is not empty. This guards against silent failures where `msiexec` exits successfully but extracts no files, triggering a retry if necessary.
Refactors the driver selection UI to enhance stability and performance by changing how the underlying data source is managed. Creating and re-assigning a new list when data changes, rather than modifying the bound collection in-place, prevents UI inconsistency errors.
- Updates the model search to use the native WPF `CollectionView.Filter` for more efficient and reliable filtering.
- Fixes an issue where HTML entities were not decoded in Microsoft driver model names.
- Ensures selected drivers from one manufacturer are preserved when fetching models for another.
- Centralizes driver-related button event handlers into the core initialization module.
Relocates driver-specific download, parsing, and management logic from the main UI script and the FFUUI.Core module into new, dedicated modules for each manufacturer (Dell, HP, Lenovo, Microsoft). This improves modularity and code organization.
Additionally, centralizes common HTTP headers and user agent strings in the FFUUI.Core module, accessible via a new helper function.
