Since the release of the WebView2, it's a bit of an annoyance having to include a copy of the runtime for that. I already have to include a copy of .NET Runtime in order to work and that takes a good chunk of space. With this rework, users can now remove anything that they don't need. So, if you have the Microsoft Edge WebView2, you'll be able to remove the included copy and Northbridge will use the copy that is installed on your device. Win-win!
Now I need to find a way to detect if it is installed on the device and I'll be golden.

Wrote a tool that installs the game's dependencies. That means Northbridge will always use the latest version of the Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime.
