Newer versions of Windows (Windows 10 1607 and newer) can support path
names longer than MAX_PATH (260 characters). To take advantage of that, an
application needs to opt in, by including a small manifest as a resource.
Application must be prepared to handle filenames greater than MAX_PATH.
Additionally, the path length limitation is only lifted for file APIs that
pass paths as wchar_t. Therefore, the preceding patches have refactored a
few remaining cases where:
1. filename length was restricted to MAX_PATH
2. files were opened using ANSI functions.
On older versions of Windows, the newly added manifest has no effect.

What is the effect of the version attribute here? Would it be meaningful
to replace the static dummy value with something more realistic like
"5.1.n" or similar?
Just asking as I'm not very familiar with manifest resources.
