[yaira2]

• Updated WinAppSdk to 1.6
• Removed workaround for auto hide taskbar

Will this utilize new native AOT compilation?

Not yet, we have still some blocker (Vanara package). I've been removing it.

Aside from what @0x5bfa mentioned, the AOT support in WinAppSdk 1.6 is a bit rough and we might have to wait for future versions of WinAppSdk before we can enable it.

The two issues we're currently having with this PR are

1. The accessibility tests (fyi @marcelwgn)
2. Shell previews cause Files to crash

1. You need to add the latest CsWinRT reference to all projects using WinRT APIs, they have a source generator for this.
2. You can use <WindowsSdkPackageVersion>10.0.22621.42</WindowsSdkPackageVersion>.
3. Some classes need to be marked as partial after you update CsWinRT.

The last time we tried updating it caused a bunch of crashes, but it could be that updating WinAppSdk will solve this issue.

Some classes need to be marked as partial after you update CsWinRT.

How do you know which ones?

How do you know which ones?

The analyzer bundled with WinRT will tell you and yield a compilation error if there's anything missing.

I will check later today.
