Proposal: Provide Sample + Guidance for Loading WinUI 3 in PowerShell

Summary

Provide guidance as well as a Hello World sample solution that runs a basic WinUI 3 form within a PowerShell 7 host

Rationale

There are many sysadmins who create PowerShell based tools and desire a visually appealing, modern, UI Framework other than WinForm or WPF. There doesn't seem to be guidance available to identify the required dependencies that must be loaded.

These UIs generally do not need to be extremely complex, nor do they require full feature parity, but when used they provide improved experiences for sysadmins that create tools to make their lives easier.

Totally agree and I need this too. I've been trying to find "any" information about how to create a simple proof of concept WinUI3 UI, nothing fancy just a window and a button or text, in PowerShell core that uses modern .NET but there is literally no information that can be found, I also asked around a lot and nobody knew how to do this task.

So I think only Microsoft can provide us with samples and guides to use WinUI3 in PowerShell.
