updates to have wppm more python and platform agnostic - #2061

--register/--unregister assumed the WinPython layout in two ways that misfired on a plain Python target: - the start menu folder was hardcoded to Programs\WinPython, and is rmtree'd on both register and unregister, so acting on any other Python deleted the real WinPython menu folder, - shortcuts were built from every .exe found in the target's parent directory, which is right for WinPython (Spyder, Jupyter, command prompts sit next to the Python dir) but picks up unrelated files for a Python in C:\Python313 or a venv. is_winpython_layout() tests for the sibling scripts/env.bat already used by do_pip_action, and drives both: WinPython keeps its folder name and its parent scan, anything else gets a folder named after the target directory and shortcuts to its own python.exe/pythonw.exe. The folder helpers keep folder_name='WinPython' as default, so outside callers are unaffected. Menu folder creation moves out of the shortcut loop, where it was rmtree'ing and recreating once per shortcut. --movable/--fix are untouched: they patch Scripts/ shebangs and pip's vendored distlib, which is generic to any Windows Python. Help text reworded accordingly. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Middle digit up: the start menu folder of a registered non-WinPython Python changes, so this is not a fixes-only release. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The page listed what wppm can do without ever showing a result, so a visitor had to imagine the output. Each section now asks a question and answers it with actual terminal output, all of it run and pasted verbatim: - wppm -p "flit![.]" as the opener: which extras of an installed package are unusable here, and exactly what is missing, - wppm -r "pytest[.]": who pulls a package in, through which extra -- the granularity pipdeptree does not have, - wppm -r "pluggy!": the handful of packages that cap it, ie what will actually fight the next upgrade. Adds a library section (piptree.PipData().down(..., format="json")), since the tree engine is importable and takes a target= -- no subprocess, no parsing of terminal output. pyproject: the PyPI search line read "WinPython Package Management" and the keywords were Portable/Windows, so nobody looking for a dependency tool could match it. Description and keywords now say what it does, plus console/build-tools classifiers. Usage block regenerated from --help; it had drifted, and now differs only in the -t default, kept generic instead of a local path. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
