Updater needs to be able to update itself and files it's using #287

Currently if there's for example an updated log4net.dll file it cannot be 
updated as the updater process locks the file since it's using it.

This should be resolved somehow since the only way to 'fix' this at the moment 
is making an entirely new installer package with the updated files in it.

hmmmm, i was researching ways of force deleting locked files and implications.  
Will give it a go.  Can't be done in native C# even with interop however will 
probably have to use native windows calls.

Found a way of keeping a handle to a file in memory while deleting it. Not sure 
if switching a file during runtime is going to work but i can always try right?
