Research direction

Locate the LaunchVeriStand() entry point and inspect how it currently starts VeriStand. Trace the launch path to determine how the veristand-server.exe choice should be exposed through a parameter, then verify that the default behavior remains unchanged and the silent option starts the server executable without the project explorer splash screen.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

I'd like if the LaunchVeriStand() function had a parameter that lets you specify whether you want to launch VeriStand silently or not. If that parameter is true then the function would launch the veristand-server.exe instead. Having this available would allow a more seamless interaction with the API if they did not want to see the project explorer splash screen.
