b1985bc8d1 Introduce shared sparse package identity for PowerToys (#42352)
<!-- 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
This pull request adds support for building, installing, and managing a
shared sparse MSIX package to grant package identity to select Win32
components in PowerToys. It introduces a new `PackageIdentity` project,
updates the installer to handle the new MSIX package during
install/uninstall, and provides developer documentation for working with
the sparse package. Additionally, new dependencies and signing rules are
included to support these changes.

**Sparse Package Identity Support**

* Added new `PackageIdentity` project to the solution for building the
sparse MSIX package, and included it in solution/project build
configurations (`PowerToys.sln`).

* Added developer documentation (`sparse-package.md`) and updated
documentation indexes to describe how to build, register, and consume
the sparse MSIX package.

**Installer Enhancements**

* Implemented new custom actions in the installer to install and
uninstall the `PowerToysSparse.msix` package, supporting both per-user
and machine-level scenarios (`CustomAction.cpp`, `CustomAction.def`,
`Product.wxs`).

**Build and Dependency Updates**

* Added new NuGet package dependencies for Windows App SDK AI and
Runtime to support MSIX and sparse package features
(`Directory.Packages.props`).
* Updated signing pipeline to include the new `PowerToysSparse.msix`
artifact (`.pipelines/ESRPSigning_core.json`).
