* Path items were being treated inconsistently
* We shouldn't re-enumerate a directory on every keystroke
* A bunch of elements had empty TextToSuggest (which makes it crazier
that it ever worked right)

## Summary of the Pull Request
Telemetry.write will serialize all of the whole object graph. So we need
to ensure it will not be trimmed.
This is a safe PR because it doesn't apply any logic change. If you
disable the AOT feature, this PR won't take any effect.

Data collection is hard.
Our internal package, which was last bumped around August 2024,
mistakenly changed a load bearing string from `ETW_GROUP` to
`MSPG_GROUP`. The former sets the ETW group id. The later does nothing.
This PR represents bumping our dependency to the version with the fix.
Considering that none of our data for CmdPal worked anyways, I took the
opportunity to rename a bunch of our events that had totally generic
names.
Closes#38704
