This PR is heavily inspired by https://oroboro.com/unique-machine-fingerprint/ in trying to create a hash out of a system based on various parameters like network interfaces, volume, CPU e.t.c.

For me on Windows, I cannot build brackets-shell due to snprintf: identifier not found. Which VS version are you building with? I'm using VS 2012 Express.

@MarcelGerber I am using VS 2015. It seems to be building fine on my system. I will try to build this again in the office on Monday. But thanks for building and letting me know. And good to hear from you after a long time 😁
