This captures the common pattern of writing to a temp file and moving it
to it's real name only if everything went well. It reduces the amount of
code in some places where we do this, but maybe not as much as I
expected because the upgrade thing is still a special snowflake...

The reason for ShowWindow opose to your FreeConsole is because if you start up
cmd.exe and do syncthing.exe -no-output it actually hides the existing cmd.exe
window oppose to opening a separate window and then hiding it, which keeps the
existing console hanging on syncthing.exe running.
I tried playing around with compiling as GUI, then given the option is not present
allocating a console, and redirecting the std streams to the new console, but that
seems ugly as I'd have to make quite a few calls. But that does get of the initial
flash.
