Boliang Zhang ed1d15f9a1 Fix: Install CommandPalette.Extensions.winmd to WinUI3Apps for COM marshalling (#47210 )

## Summary

Follow-up fix for #47177. Installs `CommandPalette.Extensions.winmd` to
the `WinUI3Apps\` directory (ExternalLocation) instead of the root
install folder.

## Problem

PR #47177 moved the sparse package's `ExternalLocation` from root to
`WinUI3Apps\`, but the `CommandPalette.Extensions.winmd` was still
installed to root via `DirectoryRef=INSTALLFOLDER`. The WinRT runtime
needs this winmd in the ExternalLocation directory for COM proxy/stub
creation during cross-process CmdPal extension activation. Without it,
`CoCreateInstance` returns `E_NOINTERFACE` and the PowerToys extension
fails to load in Command Palette.

## Fix

Split the `BaseApplications.wxs` `DirectoryRef` into two blocks:
- **winmd component** -> `WinUI3AppsInstallFolder` (for WinRT COM
marshalling)
- **auto-generated components** -> `INSTALLFOLDER` (unchanged, avoids
ICE30 conflict with `WinUI3ApplicationsFiles`)

## Validation

- [x] Local WiX compilation: no ICE30 errors
- [x] ADO CI build 145429943 (v0.99.1): passed
- [x] Manual verification on 25H2: CmdPal loads 55 commands after winmd
placed in WinUI3Apps
