[Installer] Upgrade the installer from WiX3 to WiX5 (#40877)
<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it

## Summary of the Pull Request
Background: The current PowerToys installer is built using Wix3, which
has now been deprecated. To improve security, service quality, and
community support, we’re upgrading the installer to Wix5.
Implementation:
Created Wix5-based projects(PowerToysSetupVext and
PowerToysSetupCustomActionsVNext) within the installer while retaining
the existing Wix3 project. Both versions are built to generate separate
installation packages. The Wix3-related code will be removed after
successful release testing confirms no issues.
Special case:
Wix5 has removed the property for 'ShowFilesInUse'. Now, whenever a file
is in use during installation, a FilesInUse pop-upwill automatically
appear asking for the next step. To ensure this doesn't interfere with
scenarios that require silent installation (e.g. Winget method), we’ve
handled it using the bafunction approach.

successful release testing confirms no issues.
Special case:
Wix5 has removed the property for 'ShowFilesInUse'. Now, whenever a file
is in use during installation, a FilesInUse pop-upwill automatically
appear asking for the next step. To ensure this doesn't interfere with
scenarios that require silent installation (e.g. Winget method), we’ve
handled it using the bafunction approach.

[Installer] Upgrade the installer from WiX3 to WiX5 (#40877)
<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
-->
## Summary of the Pull Request
Background: The current PowerToys installer is built using Wix3, which
has now been deprecated. To improve security, service quality, and
community support, we’re upgrading the installer to Wix5.
Implementation:
Created Wix5-based projects(PowerToysSetupVext and
PowerToysSetupCustomActionsVNext) within the installer while retaining
the existing Wix3 project. Both versions are built to generate separate
installation packages. The Wix3-related code will be removed after
successful release testing confirms no issues.
Special case:
Wix5 has removed the property for 'ShowFilesInUse'. Now, whenever a file
is in use during installation, a FilesInUse pop-upwill automatically
appear asking for the next step. To ensure this doesn't interfere with
scenarios that require silent installation (e.g. Winget method), we’ve
handled it using the bafunction approach.
