Compile perl 5.22

[ya4ept]

this pull request - continues #2855:

https://www.activestate.com/blog/faqs/what-is-the-status-of-perl-dev-kit-and-activeperl-pro-studio/ ActiveState will not be updating PDK to work with versions of ActivePerl newer than 5.22.

Trying to compile openkore to use perl 5.22 We need:

• [x] compile start.exe
• [ ] compile wxstart.exe
• [x] compile XSTools.dll
• [x] compile NetRedirect.dll
• [ ] change logo ??
• [ ] change dll version number?

I use:

• Windows 10 x32
• ActivePerl-5.22.1.2201-MSWin32-x86-64int-299574
• ActiveState.Perl.Dev.Kit.Pro.v9.5.1.300018.x86

Unresolved issues:

1. XSTools.dll and NetRedirect.dll compiled with ActivePerl-5.22 - not working. We can compile them using Strawberry Perl.
2. Compiled wxstart.exe - does not work

the dlls from pull request dont use the new pathfind algo, also they are not compiled using the libflag so exes dont work if perl is not installed

I propose to add russian encode to start.exe: #2600

seems ok to me, we need to check if the following encodes are in start.exe: China - suported by encode::HanExtra Russia - ?? Thailand - ??

[ya4ept]

there have never been any problems in displaying the Russian interface. There is a problem when you receive an error connecting to a non-existent server. Error encoding does not match console encoding

here after last start update i can close in cross can u test this too?

1. When i close start.exe i get the following error and the wxstart.exe process remains hanging in the task manager:
2. When i close wxstart.exe i get the following error: many errors appear in the windows application log, for example::
