gramps daac7689fd TASK 48 slice 2: the app packs as a Microsoft Store MSIX ...

The manifest the Store route needs, and a real package built from it.

Packaging/Package.appxmanifest is a full-trust packagedClassicApp: EntryPoint
Windows.FullTrustApplication, uap10:TrustLevel=mediumIL,
uap10:RuntimeBehavior=packagedClassicApp, the rescap runFullTrust capability, and
webcam + microphone DeviceCapabilities. That combination is what lets the packaged
app launch the bundled ffmpeg as a child process and write to the user's profile;
an appContainer package would virtualise the recordings folder instead. x64 only,
en-US only (policy 10.7).

Packaging/Assets/ carries the four tiles the packer requires, generated from the
app's own Assets/llamacasty-logo.jpg by scripts/make-store-logos.py - listing art
and app art cannot drift.

scripts/package-msix.sh publishes Release win-x64 self-contained into
artifacts/msix-stage (a RID-less publish would copy every RID's ONNX native),
stages the manifest as AppxManifest.xml + Assets, and runs the Windows SDK's
makeappx. MSIX_PFX/MSIX_PFX_PASSWORD sign a package for a local test install; the
Store signs submissions. artifacts/ is gitignored.

First real package: artifacts/LlamaCasty.msix, 159 MB, 509 files, 'Package
creation succeeded'.

Schema traps found by packing (makeappx reports one error at a time):
Square310x310Logo and Wide310x150Logo are NOT uap:VisualElements attributes - they
live on uap:DefaultTile.

Guard: StorePackagingTests.The_package_manifest_declares_full_trust_camera_and_
microphone - identity/architecture, the full-trust application element, the three
capabilities, no appContainer VALUE (not the file text: the manifest's own comment
says the word), en-US only, and every referenced logo present.

Full suite 438/438, 0 warnings. Cold-start smoke test after the Velopack removal:
MainWindow loaded, no exceptions.
