## Summary of the Pull Request
This pull request introduces enhancements to UI test automation,
improvements to pipeline configuration, and project structure updates.
The goal is to improve flexibility, maintainability, and efficiency in
PowerToys’ CI/CD processes.

### UI Test Enhancements:
Delayed Text Input Support
- UI tests now support character-by-character text input with
configurable delays.
- This serves as a workaround for a known CmdPal bug where input is
swallowed too quickly. The delay mitigates the issue until it is fixed
in CmdPal.
 
Centralized Environment Management
- Introduced a new class to centralize environment variable access for
UI test configuration.

CmdPal Launch Handling in Pipelines

- Adjusted test logic to handle CmdPal module startup specifically in CI
pipelines



### Pipeline Configuration Updates:
Build Artifact Customization

- Included test-related folders in pipeline build outputs for better
traceability.

Support for Build ID Targeting

- Added support for specifying PowerToys build IDs in test pipelines,
with conditional logic for specific or latest build selection.
