Hide video controls from video recordings #25

If recording the whole screen, there's no great place for the clowd recording controls. If we use WGC and SetWindowDisplayAffinity with WDA_EXCLUDEFROMCAPTURE the controls will not be present in the recording.

WGC also captures cursors more correctly. It's downside is that windows renders the yellow border around the display, and there are some types of windows that it will not record.
