Copilot 70ff4013b9 Add Shortcut Guide V2 manifest spec link to copilot-instructions.md (#48967)
Adds a reference to the WinGet Manifest Keyboard Shortcuts schema spec
in `.github/copilot-instructions.md` so AI agents know where to find the
correct field definitions, file naming conventions, and the `+` prefix
rule when creating or editing Shortcut Guide V2 manifest files.

## Summary of the Pull Request

Adds a new `## Shortcut Guide V2 Manifests` section to
`.github/copilot-instructions.md` linking to [`doc/specs/WinGet Manifest
Keyboard Shortcuts
schema.md`](../doc/specs/WinGet%20Manifest%20Keyboard%20Shortcuts%20schema.md).
This ensures agents authoring new manifest files follow the correct
schema and naming scheme (e.g., `<PackageId>.<locale>.yml`, `+` prefix
for apps without a WinGet package).

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

`.github/copilot-instructions.md` gains a dedicated section:

```markdown
## Shortcut Guide V2 Manifests

When creating or editing Shortcut Guide keyboard shortcut manifest files, follow the schema and naming conventions in the spec:

- [WinGet Manifest Keyboard Shortcuts schema](<../doc/specs/WinGet Manifest Keyboard Shortcuts schema.md>) – manifest file format, field definitions, file naming, and the `+` prefix convention for apps without a WinGet package
```

No production code changes.

## Validation Steps Performed

- Verified the relative link resolves to the correct spec file in the
repository.
- Confirmed the section is correctly placed before "Detailed
Documentation".
