f1e045751a CmdPal: Fallback ranking and global results (#43549) 
> [!IMPORTANT]
> For extension developers, this release includes a new required `string
Id` property for `FallbackCommandItem`. While your existing extensions
will continue to work, without this `Id` being set, your fallbacks will
not display and will not be rankable.
> Before this is released, you will want to prepare your extension
fallbacks.
> 
> As an example, we are naming our built-in extensions as:
> - Calculator extension provider Id:
`com.microsoft.cmdpal.builtin.calculator`
> - Calculator extension fallback:
`com.microsoft.cmdpal.builtin.calculator.fallback`
> 
> While the content of the Id isn't important, what is important is that
it is unique to your extension and fallback to avoid conflicting with
other extensions.

Now the good stuff:

## What the heck does it do!?

### The backstory

In PowerToys 0.95, we released performance improvements to Command
Palette. One of the many ways we improved its speed is by no longer
ranking fallback commands with other "top level" commands. Instead, all
fallbacks would surface at the bottom of the results and be listed in
the order they were registered with Command Palette. But this was only a
temporary solution until the work included in this pull request was
ready.

In reality, not all fallbacks were treated equally. We marked the
calculator and run fallbacks as "special." Special fallbacks **were**
ranked like top-level commands and allowed to surface to the top of the
results.

### The new "hotness"

This PR brings the power of fallback management back to the people. In
the Command Palette settings, you, dear user, can specify what order you
want fallbacks to display in at the bottom of the results. This keeps
those fallbacks unranked by Command Palette but displays them in an
order that makes sense for you. But keep in mind, these will still live
at the bottom of search results.

But alas, we have also heard your cries that you'd like _some_ fallbacks
to be ranked by Command Palette and surface to the top of the results.
So, this PR allows you to mark any fallback as "special" by choosing to
include them in the global results. Special (Global) fallbacks are
treated like "top level" commands and appear in the search result based
on their title & description.

4710b816b4 [CmdPal] Optimise MainListPage's results display by merging already-sorted lists (#44126) 
## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR replaces the current LINQ-based results compilation query of
combining, sorting and filtering the four result sources with a 3-way
merge operation plus a final append. It provides a performance increase
as well as a significant reduction in allocations.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
The existing code:
1. Limits the number of apps returned to a pre-defined maximum.
2. Sorts the apps list.
3. Appends filtered items, scored fallback items and the apps list
together.
4. Sorts the three lists based on their score.
5. Appends the non-scored fallback items, with empty items excluded.
6. Selects just the `Item` from each.
7. Creates an array from the enumerable.

```csharp
    if (_filteredApps?.Count > 0)
    {
        limitedApps = _filteredApps.OrderByDescending(s => s.Score).Take(_appResultLimit).ToList();
    }

    var items = Enumerable.Empty<Scored<IListItem>>()
                          .Concat(_filteredItems is not null ? _filteredItems : [])
                          .Concat(_scoredFallbackItems is not null ? _scoredFallbackItems : [])
                          .Concat(limitedApps)
                          .OrderByDescending(o => o.Score)

                          // Add fallback items post-sort so they are always at the end of the list
                          // and eventually ordered based on user preference
                          .Concat(_fallbackItems is not null ? _fallbackItems.Where(w => !string.IsNullOrEmpty(w.Item.Title)) : [])
                          .Select(s => s.Item)
                          .ToArray();
```

We can exploit the fact that each of the three 'scored' lists are
pre-ordered, and replace the query with a 3-way merge and final append
of the non-scored fallback items.

By pre-sizing the results array we can avoid all the extra allocations
of the LINQ-based solution.

### Proof of pre-ordering
In `UpdateSearchText`, each of the lists is defined by calling
`ListHelpers.FilterListWithScores`:

```csharp
    // Produce a list of everything that matches the current filter.
    _filteredItems = [.. ListHelpers.FilterListWithScores<IListItem>(newFilteredItems ?? [], SearchText, scoreItem)];
```

```csharp
    _scoredFallbackItems = ListHelpers.FilterListWithScores<IListItem>(newFallbacksForScoring ?? [], SearchText, scoreItem);
```

```csharp
    var scoredApps = ListHelpers.FilterListWithScores<IListItem>(newApps, SearchText, scoreItem);

...

    _filteredApps = [.. scoredApps];
```

In `FilterListWithScores`, the results are ordered by score:

```csharp
   var scores = items
        .Select(li => new Scored<T>() { Item = li, Score = scoreFunction(query, li) })
        .Where(score => score.Score > 0)
        .OrderByDescending(score => score.Score);
```

(This also makes the existing `OrderByDescending()` for `_filteredApps`
before the LINQ query redundant.)

### K-way merge
Since the results are pre-sorted, we can do a direct merge in linear
time. This is what the new `MainListPageResultFactory`'s `Create`
achieves. As the lists may be different sizes, the routine does a 3-way
merge, followed by a 2-way merge and a single list drain to finish. Each
element is only visited once.

### Benchmarks
A separate benchmark project is
[here](https://github.com/daverayment/MainListBench), written with
Benchmark.net.

The project compares the current LINQ-based solution against:
1. An Array-based algorithm which pre-assigns a results array and still
sorts the 3 scored sets of results. This shows a naive non-LINQ solution
which is still _O(n log n)_ because of the sort.
2. The k-way merge, which is described above. _O(n)_ for both time and
space complexity.
3. A heap merge algorithm, which uses a priority queue instead of
tracking each of the lists separately. (This is _O(n log k)_ in terms of
time complexity and _O(n + k)_ for space.)

Care is taken to ensure stable sorting of items. When preparing the
benchmark data, items with identical scores are assigned to confirm each
algorithm performs identically to the LINQ `OrderBy` approach, which
performs a stable sort.

Results show that the merge performs best in terms of both runtime
performance and allocations, sometimes by a significant margin. Compared
to the LINQ approach, merge runs 400%+ faster and with at most ~20% of
the allocations:

### Cons

1. Existing performance is not currently an issue. This could be seen as
a premature optimisation.
2. The new code introduces an inherent contract between the results
compilation routine and the lists, i.e. that they must be sorted.

This PR was really for research and learning more about CmdPal (and a
bit of algorithm practice because it's Advent of Code time), so please
feel free to reject if you feel the cons outweigh the pros.

<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
## Validation Steps Performed
- Added unit tests to exercise the new code, which confirm that the
specific ordering is preserved, and the filtering and pre-trimming of
the apps list is performed as before.
- Existing non-UI unit tests run. NB: I _could not_ run any UI Tests on
my system and just got an early bail-out each time.
- Manual testing in (non-AOT) Release mode.

52f2561937 CmdPal: Find app for WinGet package (#43943) 
<!-- 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 PR introduces a bit of dark magic to resolve the correct installed
app for a given WinGet package:

- Packaged apps: matched using their package family name.
- Everything else: matched using the product code (GUID) and heuristic
registry lookup.
- The registry rarely stores the executable path directly, so the logic
compares install locations with known apps.
  - It attempts to pick the best candidate while avoiding uninstallers.
  - It’s not science — let’s call it `#666666` magic.
- MSI API support was removed because it's too slow for this scenario.
- If no reliable match is found, the command is skipped for now. The
future plan is to redirect the user to the list of installed apps and
search by display name, but that needs some supporting infrastructure
first.
- The command order for WinGet list entries was updated: **Install /
Uninstall** is now the primary action, ensuring a stable UI since this
command is always available.

1ba5a258e9 CmdPal: Add custom search engine option to Web Search extension (#43941) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR allows user to customize a search query in Command Palette's Web
Search built-in extension. This will also solve a problem with some
browser that doesn't handle argument in form "? <query>" as it will
allow user to specify the complete URI.

- Introduces a new text box in Web Search extension settings for
specifying a custom search engine URI
- If the text box is non-empty, the provided URI is used for queries
- If left empty, the extension defaults to previous behavior, sending
queries in the format "? query"

0de60445ea CmdPal: Use Shell API to determine the default browser in WebSearch (#43339) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR introduces a new method for determining the default browser
using the Windows Shell API. The new provider selects the browser
associated with the HTTPS protocol (falling back to HTTP if necessary).
The original implementation is retained as a fallback for now, and the
codebase is prepared for future extensions (e.g., manual default-browser
selection).

As a flyby, it also fixes an issue where commands continued showing the
previous browser name if the user changed their default browser while
the Command Palette was running.

## One-liner for change log

Fixed default browser selection in the Web Search built-in extension.

## Summary of the Pull Request

This change marks the System command provider as special, ensuring
fallback items are surfaced at the top of the list.

Additionally, the SystemCommandExtensionProvider ID has been updated to
comply with the new naming convention.

As a small cleanup, SystemCommandExtensionProvider is now sealed.

-->
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR fixes the migration of bookmarks from versions prior to 0.95,
resolving an issue where hotkeys and aliases wouldn’t persist on
bookmarks created with Command Palette 0.94 or earlier.

It removes ID auto-fixing from `BookmarkData` in favor of an explicit
migration step handled by `BookmarkManager`.

## Summary of the Pull Request

This is a PR for issue **#42260**.
It targets **CmdPal’s WindowWalker** and changes the icon retrieval to
use **SendMessage** to obtain the window’s actual icon, instead of using
the **process icon**.

To support this, I added a new configuration option.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments


Actully, The `ThumbnailHelper` already contains code that converts an
`IntPtr` `hIcon` into an `IRandomAccessStream`, as shown below:

```
 private static MemoryStream GetMemoryStreamFromIcon(IntPtr hIcon)
 {
     var memoryStream = new MemoryStream();

     // Ensure disposing the icon before freeing the handle
     using (var icon = Icon.FromHandle(hIcon))
     {
         icon.ToBitmap().Save(memoryStream, System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Png);
     }

     // Clean up the unmanaged handle without risking a use-after-free.
     NativeMethods.DestroyIcon(hIcon);

     memoryStream.Position = 0;
     return memoryStream;
 }

 private static async Task<IRandomAccessStream?> FromHIconToStream(IntPtr hIcon)
 {
     var stream = new InMemoryRandomAccessStream();

     using var memoryStream = GetMemoryStreamFromIcon(hIcon); // this will DestroyIcon hIcon
     using var outputStream = stream.GetOutputStreamAt(0);
     using var dataWriter = new DataWriter(outputStream);

     dataWriter.WriteBytes(memoryStream.ToArray());
     await dataWriter.StoreAsync();
     await dataWriter.FlushAsync();

     return stream;
 }
```

Without modifying (or using) this code, I implemented the almost same
logic directly in `SwitchToWindowCommand` (calling the async code with
`Wait` to block synchronously). The reasons are:

1. I wanted to limit changes to the **WindowWalker** project area. I
don’t expect other extensions to need this behavior.
2. Because this is resource-related work, exposing a public helper that
pulls memory from an `hIcon` pointer seems risky—especially in a class
like `ThumbnailHelper`.

Therefore, I implemented behavior that is nearly identical to the
snippet above.

I did use `using`/`Dispose` where appropriate, but the
`InMemoryRandomAccessStream` created for `IconInfo.FromStream` appears
to use internal referencing; disposing it would be incorrect. For that
reason I didn’t wrap it in a `using`. I’m not entirely sure whether GC
will handle this cleanly.

However, based on the implementation of `FromStream` itself and its
usage elsewhere (e.g., in `ThumbnailHelper`), this seems to be the
correct usage pattern, though I’m not entirely sure.

f55c49e15b CmdPal: adjust frecency weighting (#42242) 
In #41959 we changed the string matcher's weighting. It ended up giving
us lower scores than before.

That meant that the weighting from recent commands was far too heavy,
and it was polluting the results. Basically any command that you'd run
would be like, 30 characters of weight heavier than anything you
haven't.


This increases the weight of all string matches by 10x. That means
something like
`Command Prompt` will get a string matched weight of `100` instead of
`10`. This balances better with the weighting from frecency (where the
MRU command gets +35, then `+min(5*uses,35)`, for up to 70 points of
weight)

It also adds a bunch of tests here, to try and catch this again in the
future.

ccc31c13ae CmdPal: A couple more run commands bugs (#42174) 
Caching bugs are hard.

This fixes like, three different run commands bugs:
* typing `c:\windows\p`, then backspacing to `c:\windows` would populate
the cache for `c:\` with the files in `c:\` that matched `windows*`.
* Now when the dir chenges, we correctly fill the cache with everything
in that dir, then filter it.
* that also caused a similar edge case for `c:\windows\` -> `c:\windows`
(the first should show results under c:\windows\` the second should only
show things in `c:\` matching `windows`
* As of my last PR, we support commandlines with spaces. We however
forgot to handle _paths_ with spaces. We'll now correctly show path
results for something like `c:\program files\`

55f0bcc441 CmdPal: Make Bookmarks Great and Fast Again (#41961) 
## Summary of the Pull Request


This PR improves recognition and classification of bookmarks, allowing
CmdPal to recognize almost anything sensible a user can throw at
it—while being forgiving of common input issues (such as unquoted spaces
in paths, etc.).

Extended classification and exploration of edge cases also revealed
limitations in the current implementation, which reloaded all bookmarks
on every change. This caused visible UI lag and could lead to issues
like unintentionally adding the same bookmark multiple times.

### tl;dr

More details below

- Introduces `BookmarkManager` (async saves, thread-safe, immutable,
unique IDs, separate persistence).
- Adds `BookmarkResolver` (classification, Shell-like path/exe
resolution, better icons).
- `BookmarkListItem` now refreshes independently; Name is optional
(Shell fallback).
- Uses Shell API for user-friendly names and paths.  
- Adds `IIconLocator`, protocol icon support, Steam custom icon,
fallback icons and improved `FaviconLoader` (handles redirects). Every
bookmark should now have icon, so we have consistent UI without gaps.
- Refactors placeholders (`IPlaceholderParser`), adds tests, restricts
names to `[a-zA-Z0-9_-]`, excludes GUIDs.
- Reorganizes structure, syncs icons/key chords with AllApps/Indexer.  
- For web and protocol bookmarks URL-encodes placeholder values
- **Performance:** avoids full reloads, improves scalability, reduces UI
lag.
- **Breaking change:** stricter placeholder rules, bookmark command ids.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

### Changes

- **Bookmark Manager**  
  - Introduces a `BookmarkManager` class that:  
    - Holds bookmarks in memory and saves changes asynchronously.  
    - Is safe to operate from multiple threads.  
    - Uses immutable data for transport.  
    - Separates the **persistence model** from in-memory data.  
    - Assigns explicit unique IDs to bookmarks.  
- These IDs also serve as stable top-level command identifiers, enabling
aliases and shortcuts to be bound reliably.

- **Bookmark Resolver**  
- Determines the type of a bookmark (`CommandKind`: file, web link,
command, etc.).
  - Detects its target and parameters.  
- Returns a `Classification` object containing all information needed to
present the bookmark to the user (icon, primary command, context menu
actions, etc.).
- For unquoted local paths, attempts to find the *longest viable
matching path* to a file or executable, automatically handling spaces in
paths (e.g., `C:\Program Files`).
- The resolution of executables from the command line now more closely
matches **Windows Shell** behavior.
    - Users are more likely to get the correct result.  
    - Icons can be determined more reliably.  

- **Bookmark List Items**  
- Each top-level bookmark item (`BookmarkListItem`) is now responsible
for presenting itself.
  - Items refresh their state independently on load or after changes.  
  - The **Name** field is now optional.  
- If no explicit name is provided, a user-friendly fallback name is
computed automatically using the Shell API.
- Context actions are now more in line with **All Apps** and **Indexer**
built-in extensions, matching items, icons, and shortcuts (still a work
in progress).

- **Shell API Integration**  
- Uses the Shell API to provide friendly names and paths for shell or
file system items, keeping the UI aligned with the OS.

- **Protocol and Icon Support**  
  - Adds `IIconLocator` and protocol icon support.  
- Provides a custom icon for **Steam**, since Steam registers its
protocol to an executable not on the path (and the Steam protocol is
expected to be a common case).
  - Adds `FaviconLoader` for web links.  
- Can now follow redirects and retrieve the favicon even if the server
takes the request on a “sightseeing tour.”
- Provides **Fluent Segoe fallback icons** that match the bookmark
classification when no specific icon is available.

- **Refactors and Reorganization**  
  - Extracts `IPlaceholderParser` for testability and reusability.  
- Renames `Bookmarks` → `BookmarksData` to prevent naming collisions.
  - Reorganizes the structure (reducing root-level file clutter).  
  - Synchronizes icons and key chords with AllApps/Indexer.  
- Refactors placeholder parsing logic and **adds tests** to improve
reliability.

- **Misc**
- Correctly URL-encodes placeholder values in Web URL or protocol
bookmarks.

---

### Performance Improvements

- Eliminates full reloads of all bookmarks on every change.  
- Improves scalability when working with a large number of bookmarks.  
- Independent refresh of list items reduces UI lag and improves
responsiveness.
- Asynchronous persistence prevents blocking the UI thread on saves.  

---

### Breaking Changes

- **Placeholders**  
- Placeholder names are now restricted to letters (`a–z`, `A–Z`), digits
(`0–9`), uderscore (`_`), hyphen (`-`).
- GUIDs are explicitly excluded as valid placeholders to prevent
collisions with shell IDs.
- When presented to the user, placeholders are considered
case-insensitive.
- ** Bookmark Top-Level Command
- **Bookmark Top-Level Command**  
  - IDs for bookmark commands are now based on a unique identifier.  
  - This breaks existing bindings to shortcuts and aliases.  
- Newly created bindings will be stable regardless of changes to the
bookmark (name, address, or having placeholders).

0d3db48ab1 CmdPal: Properly quote arguments when rebuilding normalized path (#42071) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR ensures proper quoting of arguments after normalization. When
joining arguments back into a single string, any argument containing
whitespace or double quotes must be quoted (because parsing unquoted
them). Adjusts unit tests to reflect the correct expected results.

c3398b0a01 Allow Run to handle commandlines with spaces (#42016) 
This better handles cases where commandlines might have embedded spaces.
For something like

```
C:\Program Files\PowerShell\7\pwsh.exe -c write-host dawg
```

we'll now see that `C:\Program` isn't a file, and we'll try to look at
`C:\Program Files\PowerShell\7\pwsh.exe` instead.

This code is pilfered from
https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/pull/12348 which fixed
https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/12345. Terminal has great
code for normalizing a string into an executable and args, so why not
just use it here.

related to #41646
related to #41705 (but much more narrowly scoped)

I added some tests too.

drive-by fix: as I was adding tests, I added a helper for "make a change
to a page, and await the page's ItemsChanged". This removes a bunch of
`await 1s` calls, and brings the shell page tests from like, 7s to 500ms

d07f40eec3 CmdPal go brrrr (performance improvements) (#41959) 
Still a WIP, but here's the deets so far:

## No more throwing canceled tokens

Throwing exceptions is expensive and since we essentially cancel tokens
anytime someone is typing beyond the debounce, we could be throwing
exceptions a ton during search. Since we don't care about those past
executions, now they just `return`.

## Reduced number of apps returned in search

While users can specify how many apps (no limit, 1, 5), if they specify
no limit, we hard limit it at 10. For a few reasons, fuzzy search gets
_really_ fuzzy sometimes and gives answers that users would think is
just plain wrong and they make the response list longer than it needs to
be.

## Fuzzy search: still fuzzy, but faster

Replaced `StringMatcher` class with `FuzzyStringMatcher`.
`FuzzyStringMatcher` is a C# port by @zadjii-msft of the Rust port by
@lhecker for [microsoft/edit](https://github.com/microsoft/edit), which
I believe originally came from [VS
Code](https://github.com/microsoft/vscode). It's a whole fuzzy rabbit
hole. But it's faster than the `StringMatcher` class it replaced.

## Fallbacks, you need to fall back

"In the beginning, fallbacks were created. This had made many people
very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move."

Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy jokes aside, fallbacks are one cause of
slower search results. A few modifications have been made to get them
out of the way without reverting their ability to do things dynamically.

1. Fallbacks are no longer scored and will always* appear at the bottom
of the search results
2. In updating their search text, we now use a cancellation token to
stop processing previous searches when a new keypress is recorded.

## * But Calculator & Run are special

So, remember when I said that all fallbacks will not be ranked and
always display at the bottom of the results? Surprise, some will be
ranked and displayed based on that score. Specifically, Calculator and
Run are fallbacks that are whitelisted from the restrictions mentioned
above. They will continue to act as they do today.

We do have the ability to add future fallbacks to that whitelist as
well.

95b19739f6 CmdPal: Replace localized strings used as setting values in WebSearch extension with literals (#41331) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

For WebSearch extension:

- Replaces localized string identifiers with invariant literal keys to
ensure stable and consistent setting values, avoiding issues when
switching cultures or if display strings change.
- Renames the `ShowHistory` property to `HistoryItemCount`.  
- Changes the type from `string` to `int` and centralizes parsing logic
in `SettingsManager`.
- Retains backward compatibility by preserving the legacy settings key
`"ShowHistory"` in `SettingsManager`.

1e517f2721 Tests(CmdPal/Calc): verify CloseOnEnter swaps primary Copy/Save (#41202) 
## Summary of the Pull Request
Add two unit tests for CmdPal Calculator to guard the “Close on Enter”
behavior. Tests assert that:
- CloseOnEnter = true → primary is Copy, first More is Save.
- CloseOnEnter = false → primary is Save, first More is Copy.

Relates to #40262. Follow-up tests for [CmdPal][Calc] “Close on Enter”
feature (see PR #40398).

## PR Checklist
- [ ] Closes: N/A
- [ ] **Communication:** N/A (tests-only follow-up)
- [x] **Tests:** Added/updated and all pass
- [ ] **Localization:** N/A (no user-facing strings)
- [ ] **Dev docs:** N/A
- [ ] **New binaries:** None
- [ ] **Documentation updated:** N/A

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
Added:
-
`src/modules/cmdpal/Tests/Microsoft.CmdPal.Ext.Calc.UnitTests/CloseOnEnterTests.cs`

Implementation notes:
- Uses existing `Settings` test helper to toggle `CloseOnEnter`.
- Calls `ResultHelper.CreateResult(...)`, then asserts:
- `ListItem.Command` type is `CopyTextCommand` or `SaveCommand` per
setting.
- First entry in `MoreCommands` (cast to `CommandItem`) is the opposite
command.

## Validation Steps Performed
- Local test run:
  - VS Test Explorer: `CloseOnEnterTests` → Passed (2).
  - CLI:  
`dotnet test
src\modules\cmdpal\Tests\Microsoft.CmdPal.Ext.Calc.UnitTests\Microsoft.CmdPal.Ext.Calc.UnitTests.csproj
-c Debug -p:Platform=x64 --filter FullyQualifiedName~CloseOnEnterTests`
- Manual sanity check:
- Open CmdPal (Win+Alt+Space), Calculator provider, toggle “Close on
Enter,” verify Enter closes (Copy primary) vs keeps open (Save primary).


Also relates to #40398 #40262

6acb793184 CmdPal: Null pattern matching based on is expression rather than overridable operators (#40972) 
What the title says. 😄 

Rather than relying on the potentially overloaded `!=` or `==` operators
when checking for null, now we'll use the `is` expression (possibly
combined with the `not` operator) to ensure correct checking. Probably
overkill for many of these classes, but decided to err on the side of
consistency. Would matter more on classes that may be inherited or
extended.

Using `is` and `is not` will provide us a guarantee that no
user-overloaded equality operators (`==`/`!=`) is invoked when a
`expression is null` is evaluated.

In code form, changed all instances of:

```c#
something != null

something == null
```

to:

```c#
something is not null

something is null
```

The one exception was checking null on a `KeyChord`. `KeyChord` is a
struct which is never null so VS will raise an error when trying this
versus just providing a warning when using `keyChord != null`. In
reality, we shouldn't do this check because it can't ever be null. In
the case of a `KeyChord` it **would** be a `KeyChord` equivalent to:

```c#
KeyChord keyChord = new ()
{
    Modifiers = 0,
    Vkey = 0,
    ScanCode = 0
};
```

9a998b2056 [UI Tests] Enhance UI Test Automation and Pipeline Support for CmdPal Module (#40871) 
<!-- 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 introduces enhancements to UI test automation,
improvements to pipeline configuration, and project structure updates.
The goal is to improve flexibility, maintainability, and efficiency in
PowerToys’ CI/CD processes.

### UI Test Enhancements:
Delayed Text Input Support
- UI tests now support character-by-character text input with
configurable delays.
- This serves as a workaround for a known CmdPal bug where input is
swallowed too quickly. The delay mitigates the issue until it is fixed
in CmdPal.
 
Centralized Environment Management
- Introduced a new class to centralize environment variable access for
UI test configuration.

CmdPal Launch Handling in Pipelines

- Adjusted test logic to handle CmdPal module startup specifically in CI
pipelines



### Pipeline Configuration Updates:
Build Artifact Customization

- Included test-related folders in pipeline build outputs for better
traceability.

Support for Build ID Targeting

- Added support for specifying PowerToys build IDs in test pipelines,
with conditional logic for specific or latest build selection.

/>


### Project Structure Updates:
Added Peek.UITests back to the solution which removed by
https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/pull/40754
