ed0658235b fix(peek): set correct working directory for 'Open with'
Fixes #39305

When using Peek's 'Open with' feature, the launched application now
receives the file's directory as its working directory instead of
the PowerToys installation folder.

Changes:
- Added WorkingDirectoryHelper class
- Sets WorkingDirectory to file's parent folder
- Applies to both direct open and 'Open with' dialog
