custom mount directory support + argument path translation

• support for custom mounting root path (get it from /etc/wsl.conf)
• replace Windows-style paths in command arguments (like C:\Users) to WSL paths (/mnt/c/Users)
• return exit code of executed command

(thanks to hustlahusky for above features)

• fixed a cmd.exe error message when installing
• added messages related to updating wsl-alias in installer script

fixed version

the wrong version was being downloaded lol

fixed installation regex

that regex created the default alias, so this bug made wsl-alias unusable
if you had installed v2.0 or v2.1, remove all aliases and reinstall wsl-alias using the script

bug fix

fixed passing path to wsl, syntax in alias template

new major release

changes

• feature: support for relative paths within commands, e.g. if you typed b nano ..\file.txt (or used TAB to autocomplete the command) in Windows command line or PowerShell, the backward slashes \ will automatically be converted to forward slashes / to reference the same file under wsl
• moved aliases outside of the wsl directory (new location is %userprofiles%\wsl-alias), this is to avoid the following issue: microsoft/WSL#3487
• removed the privileged userl; wsl-alias now (optionally) adds the default wsl user permission to mount a drive without requiring a password, this also results in /mnt directory requiring 777 permissions (which is also set by the installer)
• rewritten parts of the code; much nicer with better understandable variable names
• changed the install path to ~/.wsl-alias

a note about wslpath: i was planning to implement it into this release to convert the current working directory from windows into the wsl path but came across this issue: microsoft/WSL#3246
since i'm using a veracrypt container most of the time, this solution wouldn't be suitable for me (and a lot of other people) so that's why i'll wait for wslpath to be fixed

Upgrading from v1

1. Backup your aliases from ~/.wsl/bin/win
2. Delete the old version: rm -r ~/.wsl and remove the old alias directory from the Windows environment var PATH
3. Install the new release, instructions in README
4. Recreate your old aliases (if you just move your old aliases into the new directory, they won't work)

v1.2

• fixed a bug that caused removable devices to be mounted as root, they now get mounted by the default wsl user
• added a gitattributes file that fixes wrong newlines in batch file

typos

it happens to everyone
