## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR adds three parts of the original big bad global error handler
(error report builder, sanitization and internal tools UI).
### Error Report Generation
- `ErrorReportBuilder`: Produces a detailed, technical report with
system context.
- Comprehensive data: OS version, architecture, culture, app version,
elevation status, etc.
- Exception analysis: Coalesces nested exception messages and HRESULT
details for clearer diagnostics.

This is an error report generated by Windows Command Palette.
If you are seeing this, it means something went a little sideways in the
app.
You can help us fix it by filing a report at
https://aka.ms/powerToysReportBug.
(While you’re at it, give the details below a quick skim — just to make
sure there’s nothing personal you’d prefer not to share. It’s rare, but
sometimes little surprises sneak in.)

### PII Sanitization Framework
- `ErrorReportSanitizer`: Multi-layer sanitization pipeline for
sensitive data.
- Nine specialized rule providers:
- `PiiRuleProvider`: Personally identifiable information (emails, phone
numbers, SSNs).
- `ProfilePathAndUsernameRuleProvider`: Windows user profiles and
usernames.
- `NetworkRuleProvider`: IP addresses, MAC addresses, network
identifiers.
- `SecretKeyValueRulesProvider`: API keys, tokens, passwords in
key/value formats.
- `FilenameMaskRuleProvider`: Sensitive file paths and extensions.
- `UrlRuleProvider`: URLs and web addresses.
- `TokenRuleProvider`: JWT and other auth tokens.
- `ConnectionStringRuleProvider`: Database connection strings.
- `EnvironmentPropertiesRuleProvider`: Environment variables and system
properties.

## Validation Steps Performed
This upgrades to [v0.0.24](https://github.com/check-spelling/check-spelling/releases/tag/v0.0.24).
A number of GitHub APIs are being turned off shortly, so you need to upgrade or various uncertain outcomes will occur.
There's a new accessibility forbidden pattern:

There are some minor bugs that I'm aware of and which I've fixed since this release, but I don't expect to make another release this month.
I've added a pair of patterns for includes and pragmas. My argument is that the **compiler** will _generally_ tell you if you've misspelled an include and the **linker** will _generally_ tell you if you misspell a lib.
- There's a caveat here: If your include case-insensitively matches the referenced file (but doesn't properly match it), then unless you either use a case-sensitive file system (as opposed to case-preserving) or beg clang to warn, you won't notice when you make this specific mistake -- this matters in that a couple of Windows headers (e.g. Unknwn.h) have particular case and repositories don't tend to consistently/properly write them.
