Summary of the Pull Request
This PR incoperates changes that were originally proposed in #43714
This PR removes all CPP File Explorer preview handlers and thumbnail providers and merges them into one: FileExplorerDLLExporter.
This reduces duplicate code and files in the output folder.
Furthermore the solution folder "previewpane" was renamed to "File Explorer add-ons" to match the actual module name
