Adds StoragePickersTestApp, a WinUI 3 C++ app that exercises the new Microsoft.Windows.Storage.Pickers APIs next to the legacy UWP pickers, so the two can be compared with a real user experience.

It builds on WinAppSDK 1.6 (the last release with WinUI but without the new Pickers API), whose Microsoft.UI.Xaml requires WebView2 >= 1.0.2651.64. This bumps the WebView2 toolset dependency from the stale 1.0.961.33, a build/test-only package present in no product binary, and registers the app in the solution. ABForward is realigned to the same version.

Backgroud:

A similar test app was added in #6195 before, but it's dependent package versions conflicts with the repo config, so it was removed in #6287.

This PR adds the test app and updates the version numbers.
It has passed the DevCheck verification on the versions.
