Updated version numbers in SimpleIni.h and CMakeLists.txt from 4.22 to 4.23
to prepare for new release including all recent changes.
- Added Installation section clarifying SimpleIni is header-only
- Added Building and Testing section with CMake instructions
- Added instructions for running tests with ctest
- Added CMake integration examples for both subdirectory and system-wide installation
- Makes it clear that no building is required for library usage
The MacOS GitHub Actions runner was failing because pkg-config
couldn't find the googletest installation from Homebrew.

Updated tests/Makefile to:
- Try pkg-config first (works on Ubuntu)
- Fall back to Homebrew prefix on MacOS (brew --prefix)
- Fall back to standard /usr/local paths as last resort

This makes the build more robust across different platforms and
installation methods while maintaining backwards compatibility.

Fixes #80
Use formula-specific prefix (brew --prefix googletest) instead of
the general Homebrew prefix. This is more reliable on modern Homebrew
installations where formulas are installed in versioned directories.

Also removed -lpthread flag on MacOS as it's not needed and may
cause linking issues.
- Add environment diagnostics to see what's failing
- Set PKG_CONFIG_PATH to include Homebrew's googletest
- Make make test continue-on-error so CMake tests still run
- This will help us see the actual problem and test a fix
The MacOS GitHub Actions runner's pkg-config doesn't automatically find
Homebrew-installed packages. Set PKG_CONFIG_PATH to include both the
general Homebrew pkgconfig directory and googletest's specific location.

This fixes the 'Package gtest_main was not found' error that was causing
make builds to fail on MacOS while CMake builds succeeded (CMake has
better Homebrew integration).

Tested and verified working in run 19322908359.
GoogleTest 1.17.0 (now installed by Homebrew on MacOS) requires C++17
as minimum. Updated from -std=c++14 to -std=c++17 to fix compilation
error: 'C++ versions less than C++17 are not supported.'

This matches the CMake configuration which already uses C++17.
