Exchange Watson with wesng #412

Watson was not updated in a long time ago and is also highly unreliable since it produces a lot of false positives. On a current version of Windows 10 (build 19045) winPEAS can not be used, because the version is not supported by Watson.

wesng is still getting updates, provides a much more reliable output, is a lot easier to update and also allows to identify superseded updates. I suggest to integrate wesng instead of Watson for identifying missing KBs.

wesng is a python script with some heavy dependencies. It's no possible to embedded it in WinPEAS. It would be needed to run it externally (in an AWS lambda for example) and make winpeas contact it However I agree that Watson should be removed.

Let me know if you are interested in created any of those 2 things
