## 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.

## Validation Steps Performed
Just standardizing built-in extensions to use a `internal sealed class
Icons` for all their non-dynamic icons.
Looks like a LOT of changes, but it's icons all the way down.
_targets #40504_
Major refactoring for #40113
This moves a large swath of the codebase to a `.Core` project. "Core"
doesn't have any explicit dependencies on "extensions", settings or the
current `MainListPage`. It's just a filterable list of stuff. This
should let us make this component a bit more reusable.
This is half of a PR. As I did this, I noticed a particular bit of code
for TopLevelVViewModels and CommandPaletteHost that was _very rough_.
Solving it in this PR would make "move everything to a new project" much
harder to review. So I'm submitting two PRs simultaneously, so we can
see the changes separately, then merge together.
_targets #40482_
ref #40113
A smaller refactor, to be sure.
This just moves the instantiation of PageViewModel objects out of the
ShellViewModel, and into its own class.
The idea being that other page types could be added, just by extending
that factory (or implementing your own), and then also handling those
new VMs in your ShellPage.xaml.cs equivalent.

## Summary of the Pull Request
Base on https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/pull/40486 we can easily
use lab package. So all blocker has been resolved.
1. Replace CommunityToolkit.WinUI.UI.Controls.Markdown with
CommunityToolkit.Labs.WinUI.Controls.MarkdownTextBlock
2. Add default markdown style config to align some configuration with
the original one. (but still have some gap)
3. Add new configuration in pipeline to control the AOT enable/disable.

## Summary of the Pull Request
Updates LoadTopLevelCommandsFromProvider so it returns list of top-level
commands for further instead of modifying TopLevelCommands collection
directly.
Reverts unintended change from cfa5f75 where
LoadTopLevelCommandsFromProvider updates the shared TopLevelCommands
collection directly from in a task, causing thread-safety issues and
bypassing synchronization lock on the collection.

## Validation Steps Performed
_This madness has gone on too long, I say_
This replaces our default nuget.org feed with a public azure artifacts
feed in the shine-oss org. This is what literally everyone else does, I
don't know why we don't.
This should unblock _wait where'd that issue go_ since we can just add
the community toolkit labs feed as an upstream
This has the negative side effect that it did prompt me to log in to
azure artifacts with my MSA. I've cancelled like 5 prompts now, but it
seems to still be working on it?

## Summary of the Pull Request
This is an attempt to release Preview Handlers instantiated by Peek and
close the related processe.
⚠️ Note that even if the PR improve the current behavior, the solution
doesn't work 100% of times.
I noticed that sometimes the process gets leaked also when Preview
Handler is used in Explorer 🤔
