Implementation Notes
MangoHud does provide a wrapper script you can use to launch a process with the HUD enabled.
This PR's current implementation skips that in favor of making the relevant settings to the subprocess environment itself, because I am afraid of wrapper scripts having escaping issues when we pass options through or making process status harder to track.
While it is only a couple settings on one platform, multiplatform might get more complicated and make me reconsider that trade-off.
