Description
Dear @d2phap,
Thank you for your great work on ImageGlass.
I would like to request a new command line option that allows starting a slideshow directly when launching ImageGlass. This would be useful for quickly viewing images in slideshow mode from a folder without having to interact with the UI.
For example:
"%LocalAppData%\Programs\ImageGlass\ImageGlass.exe" "%UserProfile%\Pictures\Camera Roll" -slideshow
Thank you for considering this request!

Research direction
The issue names no files or tests. Start by tracing ImageGlass.exe command-line argument handling and the existing slideshow startup path. Done means a -slideshow launch option starts slideshow mode for the supplied folder without UI interaction, with coverage added if the project has command-line tests.
