Ben Hillis 358ab87d40 Add WSLC (WSL Containers) feature (#40366) ...

WSLC is a container runtime built on the Windows Subsystem for Linux, enabling Windows applications to create and manage Linux containers through a native Windows API surface.

Key components:

  (build, run, stop, inspect, push/pull from registries)
- wslcsession.exe: Per-user Windows service hosting container lifecycle,
  storage management, and networking
- WSLC SDK: C++ and C# client libraries with NuGet packaging for
  programmatic container management
- Container networking: port forwarding, DNS tunneling, virtio
  networking, and HCN integration
- Storage: VHD-backed volumes, virtiofs file sharing, overlayfs layers
- GPU passthrough and device host proxy support
