ZhijuCen 9da69ee908 fix: make MQL5_DIR configurable, use absolute paths for MetaEditor
- MQL5_DIR override via MQL5_DIR env var (Windows 10+ stores MQL5 in
  %APPDATA%, not under the install dir)
- compile/check now pass absolute paths to /compile:"path" instead of
  computing relative_to(MT5_BASE) which would fail when MQL5_DIR is
  separate
