Add Rainmeter.StringBuffer helper to C# SDK

[poiru]

This makes it easy to return strings in API functions like GetString. For example:

[DllExport]
public static IntPtr GetString(IntPtr data)
{
    return Rainmeter.StringBuffer.Update("hello");
}

Thanks for the update. I haven’t tested the new one yet, but hopefully, it’ll be easy.

I tested it and works fine. It did reduce the code thus made it easier 👌

        [DllExport]
        public static IntPtr GetString(IntPtr data)
        {
            Measure measure = (Measure)GCHandle.FromIntPtr(data).Target;
            return Rainmeter.StringBuffer.Update(measure.stringReturn);
        }

Is it good to add this in the manual?

@NSTechBytes We already added an example to GetString, I think that might be enough. Do you think it should be mentioned somewhere else?
