Use properties consistently for custom dependency paths on windows

Rewrite python docs & onboarding to be more opinionated
...
* The docs now explicitly tell people how to write UI scripts, then UI
extensions, with as quick a start as possible, and go into detail in later
documents. Use of the python module directly is also not featured prominently
as this is a rare use-case for casual scripting needs.

Rate limit how often the current line is updated in python shell
...
* If there's a very tight loop there could be a _lot_ of updates to the point
where the UI takes longer to redraw than the script does to step a line.
Updating at 100Hz is still plenty fast.

Remove "preferSourceDebug" compile flag, use sourceDebugInformation
...
* This was previously only relevant for DXBC shaders that could have source
debug information but didn't prefer source debug unless optimisation was
disabled. This is inconsistent with how things are handled on SPIR-V and DXIL
and in general it's considered now that the benefits of debugging in source
outweigh the problems of debugging optimised code.

Add type hints to python for class constructors

* We enforce default and copy constructors where possible, this isn't very
pythonic but we can't use copy.deepcopy on our types.

also have those documented though we have no way to enforce it.

Fix overload documentation for AsyncInvoke in replay manager
...
* Python can't properly document fully independent overloads, only default-
parameter type overloads. Moving the tag to last as an optional parameter
means we can eliminate the different variants.
* For cleanliness in C++ code we make an internal variant that swaps the
parameters, since it is much cleaner to have a lambda callback as the last
parameter.
