Follow up to #2603

Prior to that PR, when we first launched, we'd set powershell core to the default profile if it was installed, instead of Powershell.

With the switch to dynamic profiles, we stopped doing that. Windows Powershell is now always the default.

We should restore that behavior. The check should be simple. Modifying the user's defaultProfile in place might be a bit trickier. Adding tests also takes time, and we want to get #2515 out the door sooner than later.

_**This PR targets the #2515 PR**_. It does that for the sake of diffing. When this PR and #2515 are both ready, I'll merge #2515 first, then change the target of this branch, and merge this one.

## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR adds support for "dynamic profiles", in accordance with the [Cascading Settings Spec](https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/blob/master/doc/cascadia/Cascading-Default-Settings.md#dynamic-profiles). Currently, we have three types of default profiles that fit the category of dynamic profile generators. These are profiles that we want to create on behalf of the user, but require runtime information to be able to create correctly. Because they require runtime information, we can't ship a static version of these profiles as a part of `defaults.json`. These three profile generators are:
* The Powershell Core generator
* The WSL Distro generator
* The Azure Cloud Shell generator

## PR Checklist
* [x] Closes #754
* [x] I work here
* [x] look at all these **Tests**
* [x] Requires documentation to be updated - This is done as part of the parent PR

<!-- Provide a more detailed description of the PR, other things fixed or any additional comments/features here -->
## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

We want to be able to enable the user to edit dynamic profiles that are generated from DPGs. When dynamic profiles are added, we'll add entries for them to the user's `profiles.json`. We do this _without re-serializing_ the settings. Instead, we insert a partial serialization for the profile into the user's settings. 

### Remaining TODOs:
* Make sure that dynamic profiles appear in the right place in the order of profiles -> #2722
* [x] don't serialize the `colorTable` key for dynamic profiles.
* [x] re-parse the user settings string if we've changed it.
*  Handle changing the default profile to pwsh if it exists on first launch, or file a follow-up issue -> #2721

<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
## Validation Steps Performed


<hr>

* Create profiles by layering them

* Update test to layer multiple times on the same profile

* Add support for layering an array of profiles, but break a couple tests

* Add a defaults.json to the package

* Layer colorschemes

  * Moves tests into individual classes
  * adds support for layering a colorscheme on top of another

* Layer an array of color schemes

* oh no, this was missed with #2481

  must have committed without staging this change, uh oh. Not like those tests actually work so nbd

* Layer keybindings

* Read settings from defaults.json + profiles.json, layer appropriately

  This is like 80% of #754. Needs tests.

* Add tests for keybindings

  * add support to unbind a key with `null` or `"unbound"` or `"garbage"`

* Layer or clear optional properties

* Add a helper to get an optional variable for a bunch of different types

  In the end, I think we need to ask _was this worth it_

* Do this with the stretch mode too

* Add back in the GUID check for profiles

* Add some tests for global settings layering

* M A D  W I T H  P O W E R

  Add a MsBuild target to auto-generate a header with the defaults.json as a
  string in the file. That way, we can _always_ load the defaults. Literally impossible to not.

* When the user's profile.json doesn't exist, create it from a template

* Re-order profiles to match the order set in the user's profiles.json

* Add tests for re-ordering profiles to match user ordering

* Add support for hiding profiles using `"hidden": true`

* Use the hardcoded defaults.json for the exception->"use defaults" case

* Somehow I messed up the git submodules?

* woo documentation

* Fix a Terminal.App.Unit.Tests failure

* signed/unsigned is hard

* Use Alt+Settings button to open the default settings

* Missed a signed/unsigned

* Start dynamically creating profiles

* Give the inbox generators a namespace

  and generally hack this a lot less

* Some very preliminary PR feedback

* More PR feedback

  Use the wil helper for the exe path
  Move jsonutils into their own file
  kill some dead code

* Add templates to these bois

* remove some code for generating defaults, reorder defaults.json a tad

* Make guid a std::optional

* Large block of PR feedback

  * Remove some dead code
  * add some comments
  * tag some todos

* stl is love, stl is life

* Serialize the source key

* Make the Azure cloud shell a dynamic profile

* Make the built-in namespaces public

* Add a mechanism for quick-diffing a profile

  This will be used to generate the json snippets for dynamically generated profiles.

* Generate partial serializations of dynamic profiles _not_ in the user settings

* Start writing tests for generating dyn profiles

  * dyn profiles generate GUIDs based on _source
  * we won't run DPGs when they'd disabled?

* Add more DPG tests - TestDontRunDisabledGenerators

* Don't layer profiles with a source that's also different

* Add another test, DoLayerUserProfilesOnDynamicsWhenSourceMatches

* Actually insert new dynamic profiles into the file

* Minor cleanup of `Profile::ShouldBeLayered`

* Migrate legacy profiles gracefully

* using namespace winrt::Windows::UI::Xaml;

* _Only_ layer dynamic profiles from user settings, never create

* Write a test for migrating dynamic profiles

* Comments for dayssssss

* add `-noprofile`

* Fix the crash that dustin found

* -Encoding ASCII

* Set a profile's default scheme to Campbell

* Fix the tests I regressed

* Update UsingJsonSetting.md to reflect that changes from these PRs

* Change how GenerateGuidForProfile works

* Make AppKeyBindings do its own serialization

* Remove leftover dead code from the previous commit

* Fix up an enormous number of PR nits

* Don't layer a profile if the json doesn't have a GUID

* Fix a test I unfixed

* get rid of extraneous bois{};

* Piles of PR feedback

* Collection of PR nits

* PR nits

* Fix a typo; Update the defaults to match #2378

* Tiny nits

* In-den-taition!

* Some typos, PR nits

* Fix this broken defaults case

* Apply suggestions from code review

This pull request introduces unexpanded variables (`%DEFAULT_PROFILE%`,
`%VERSION%` and `%PRODUCT%`) to the user settings template and code to
expand them.

While doing this, I ran into a couple things that needed to widen from
accepting strings to accepting string views. I also had to move
application name and version detection up to AppLogic and expose the
AppLogic singleton.

The dynamic profile generation logic had to be moved to before we inject
the templated variables, as the new default profile depends on the
generated dynamic profiles.

References #5189, #5217 (because it has a dependency on `VERSION` and
`PRODUCT`).
