## Validation Steps Performed
Executed all unit tests related to the modified projects, confirming
that all tests passed without issues.
```
This pull request introduces a static initialization step to the
`PeekFilePreviewTests` class to ensure the correct test settings are
present before tests run. The main change is the addition of a static
constructor that creates or updates the `settings.json` file with
predefined settings, including setting the activation shortcut to
Ctrl+Space.
Test setup improvements:
* Added a static constructor to `PeekFilePreviewTests` that calls a new
`FixSettingsFileBeforeTests` method, ensuring the necessary settings
file exists and is properly configured before any tests execute.
* Implemented `FixSettingsFileBeforeTests` to create the required
directory and write a `settings.json` file with specific test
configuration, including setting the activation shortcut to Ctrl+Space
and other test-relevant properties.
`TextToSuggest` has been nothing but pain. We need another approach.
I'm leaving the code, but just disabled behind an env flag. Same as
actions.
Closes#41659

## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR replaces the previous pixel-by-pixel image comparison logic with
a perceptual hash (pHash)-based comparison using the
CoenM.ImageSharp.ImageHash library.
**Removes the need for golden images from CI pipelines**
Since the comparison is perceptual rather than binary, we no longer need
to fetch pixel-perfect golden images from pipelines for validation.
Developers can now capture screenshots locally and still get meaningful,
robust comparisons.
### Why pHash?
Unlike direct pixel comparison (which fails on minor rendering
differences), pHash focuses on the overall structure and visual
perception of the image. This provides several benefits:
- Robust to minor differences: tolerates compression artifacts,
anti-aliasing, subtle rendering changes, and border padding.
- Resilient to resolution or format changes: works even if images are
scaled or compressed differently.
- Closer to human perception: more accurately reflects whether two
images "look" the same to a person.
