Release v4.2: fix connect-freeze (#10) and new-profile minimize (#12); smoother WASAPI timing

- Connect no longer freezes: PushDiscoveryUnicastHints resolved remembered
  hostnames with synchronous Dns.GetHostAddresses on the UI thread, blocking the
  whole window for the DNS timeout on an unresolvable name. A screen-reader user
  experiences that as the entire machine locking up. Resolution now runs off the
  UI thread. Same class of bug as the v3.0.1 UPnP-on-the-UI-thread hang. (#10)

- New profile / profile switch no longer hides the window: OnShown ORed the
  global StartMinimised into every instance, so creating a new profile while
  Start minimised was on dropped the window to the tray and looked like a crash.
  StartMinimised now applies only to a genuine cold launch; relaunches honour the
  explicit per-instance flag. (#12)

- Smoother WASAPI audio: the receive producer loop and sender mix loop pace
  themselves with WaitHandle.WaitOne, bound by the system timer (~15.6ms default).
  Without a fine timer the 10ms feed slips to ~16-31ms and delivers audio in
  chunky bursts (the desktop-render chunkiness behind Andre's dropouts/lag). New
  SystemTimerResolution holds a 1ms timer whenever a stream is live, independent
  of the opt-in Priority mode.
