CmdPal: Dock Auto-hide

[michaeljolley]

This pull request introduces a new "Auto-hide" feature for the dock, allowing users to collapse the dock until they hover over its screen edge. The changes include updates to the settings model, UI, localization resources, and automated tests to support and verify this new functionality.

Dock Auto-hide Feature:

• Added an AutoHide property to the DockSettings model, defaulting to false, with serialization support and documentation updates clarifying its intended UX contract. [1] [2]
• Exposed the AutoHide setting in the SettingsViewModel for data binding in the UI.
• Added a toggle for "Auto-hide dock" to the dock settings page in the UI, with appropriate localization strings for header and description. [1] [2]

Closes #46239

Some files were automatically ignored 🙈

These sample patterns would exclude them:

^src/modules/ZoomIt/ZoomIt/rnnoise/rnnoise_data_little\.c$
^src/modules/ZoomIt/ZoomIt/selfie_segmentation\.onnx$

You should consider adding them to:

.github/actions/spell-check/excludes.txt

File matching is via Perl regular expressions.

To check these files, more of their words need to be in the dictionary than not. You can use patterns.txt to exclude portions, add items to the dictionary (e.g. by adding them to allow.txt), or fix typos.

To update file exclusions, you could run the following commands

... in a clone of the git@github.com:microsoft/PowerToys.git repository
on the dev/mjolley/squad/issue-46239-phase1-spec branch (ℹ️ how do I use this?):

curl -s -S -L 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/check-spelling/check-spelling/cfb6f7e75bbfc89c71eaa30366d0c166f1bd9c8c/apply.pl' |

git commit -m 'Update check-spelling metadata'

Forbidden patterns 🙅 (1)

In order to address this, you could change the content to not match the forbidden patterns (comments before forbidden patterns may help explain why they're forbidden), add patterns for acceptable instances, or adjust the forbidden patterns themselves.

These forbidden patterns matched content:

• binary file (or some other file you wouldn't want to check at all).

  Please add a file path to the excludes.txt file matching the containing file.

  File paths are Perl 5 Regular Expressions - you can test yours before committing to verify it will match your files.

  ^ refers to the file's path from the root of the repository, so ^README\.md$ would exclude README.md (on whichever branch you're using).

• well-formed pattern.

  If you can write a pattern that would match it,
  try adding it to the patterns.txt file.

  Note that patterns can't match multiline strings.
