Support for everything file indexer

Mostly when searching for files

Please elaborate further on this.

The Everything search engine parses the Master File Table on NTFS drives and bypasses the windows file API almost completely for very fast indexing. Requires admin rights and one would need to find a way to access the MFT. There is a rust MFT parser for once you have it.

Pretty sure there were multiple issues for this already.
