Add shell_update to notify system to update shell

The `shell_update` function notifies the system when the shell needs to be updated due to a changed protocol or file association.

An output parameter is added to the `shell_register_protocol` and `shell_register_extension` functions, to determine whether the shell needs to be updated after calling the functions.
We only check whether the application path and program association were changed, instead of checking whether any key or value was changed, as this reduces the amount of necessary checks and we assume that the other values are not externally changed.

Because updating the shell is a potentially expensive operation, this should only be done when necessary and only once after registering all protocols and extensions.
