- Adds `LanguagePrimitives.IsNullLike()` method to account for `DBNull.Value` and `NullString.Value` so that they can be considered the same as a null value where sensible in PowerShell.
- Updates `-ne` and `-eq` binders to treat `DBNull.Value` and `NullString.Value` as equal to null/AutomationNull.
- Update code paths for comparing objects in LanguagePrimitives to ensure consistency with how the `-eq` and `-ne` binders work when calling LanguagePrimitives methods to do the comparisons.
- Make `LanguagePrimitives.IsNull()` and `LanguagePrimitives.IsNullLike()` public methods.
- Added tests for null behaviours in `NullRepresentatives.Tests.ps1`
This PR does 4 things:
* Adds a new cmdlet `New-PSBreakpoint` which creates new `Breakpoint` objects and writes them to the pipeline
* Adds a `-Breakpoint` parameter to `Debug-Runspace` which will receive `Breakpoint` objects
* Makes the constructors for `*Breakpoint` public for use with the API
* Makes `Debugger.GetBreakpoint(string id)` and `Debugger.GetBreakpoints()` public since `SetBreakpoints` is public
Note: `New-PSBreakpoint` and `Set-PSBreakpoint` (which already exists) are similar... but `Set-PSBreakpoint` also sets the breakpoints in the _current_ runspace. This is not ideal if we want to set breakpoints in a _different runspace than the current one_.
## PR Context
The "Attach to process" debugging experience in the PowerShell extension for VSCode is _ok_ but it's not great.
The reason it's not great is due to the `BreakAll` feature of PowerShell debugging which, when you run `Debug-Runspace`, will break at the first piece of code that gets run. This is not ideal when you "Attach to process" _and then_ run your code in the other runspace.
Today, the experience drops you in `PSReadLine`'s psm1 if PSRL is available or in the vscode PowerShell helper psm1.
It's unexpected for the user and not ideal.
This PR will allow the extension to pass in the breakpoints that need to be set initially with `BreakAll` turned off for none of this silly behavior.
### Silly behavior example
If you want a repro, try this:
PowerShell instance 1:
```
Enter-PSHostProcess -Id $otherprocesspid
Debug-Runspace 1
```
PowerShell instance 2:
```
./runfoo.ps1
```
Note that you end up NOT `runfoo.ps1`
Moved check if able to write to $PSHome as way to skip test to `BeforeAll` which already contained a check if running on Windows.
## PR Context
As part https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/pull/9279, tests were updated to be skipped if the test requires writing to `$PSHome` but is not able to. However, these tests already had a skip mechanism in place so the additional check caused the test to run when it should have skipped.

Improve type inference for foreach statement variables by:
Inferring strongly typed arrays from explicit array and array literal expressions when elements are of the same inferred type
Fix detection of foreach variable declaration. The previous logic was to check if the variable expression's start offset was after the end offset of the foreach statement, which will never be true in the body
Improve inference of what type the "Condition" of a foreach statement will enumerate as
Update the task-based async APIs added to PowerShell to not use the `aysnc/await` keywords, but to return a `Task` object directly.
There is nothing to continue on after the `Task.Factory.FromAsync` call in those methods, so there is not need to use `aysnc` and `await` keywords, which turns the method into a state machine class unnecessarily.
This removes some of the last mentions of the AppVeyor name. Don't change the title, we don't want the word to appear in the CLs
Also problem: the last references are in the changelogs but I don't want to modify them without committee approval.

Fix for #6741 Allow .exe files to be used as binary modules. Basically anywhere a .dll could be used with modules, you can now use a .exe file. Also did a little clean up, replacing constant strings with the StringLiteral values instead.
Major changes are:
- Make all commands return 'ConfirmImpact.None' if `SupportsShouldProcess` is not set to `true`.
- Update some cmdlets to explicitly use `ConfirmImpact.Low`.
- Update `DefaultCommands.Tests.ps1` to test for 'ConfirmImpact' level.
[breaking change]
Major changes are as follows:
- Add `Enable-ExperimentalFeature` and `Disable-ExperimentalFeature` cmdlets.
- Remove `-ListAvailable` from `Get-ExperimentalFeature`.
- Add `ArgumentCompleter` for `Get-ExperimentalFeature` cmdlet.
- Refactor some existing Experimental Feature tests.
- Make `ConfigScope` public and renamed `SystemWide` to `AllUsers`. Also update experimental feature code to prefer the current user config over the all user config.
Major changes are as follows:
- Avoid `SecuritySupport.IsProductBinary` and unnecessary AMSI/suspicious code scan at startup time
- Update `CompiledScriptBlockData.IsProductCode` to avoid unnecessary calls to `IsProductBinary`, which attempts to retrieve catalog signature of the target file.
- Update `PerformSecurityChecks` to skip AMSI and suspicious code scan for the `.psd1` file that contains a safe `HashtableAst` only.
- Use customized `ReadOnlyBag` instead of `ImmutableHashSet` so that we can avoid loading the `System.Collections.Immutable.dll` completely.
- Replace `SHA1` with `CRC32` when generating module analysis cache file name
- This remove the loading of `System.Security.Cryptography.Algorithms.dll` at startup
- Move `ConvertFrom-SddlString` to C# to remove the `Utility.psm1` file.
- Crossgen `Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.dll` and enable tiered compilation
- Even pwsh with crossgen assemblies spends a lot time in jitting at the startup, about `191.6ms` comparing with `24.7ms` for Windows PowerShell.
- Jitting `Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.dll` takes about `51.6ms`.
- By crossgen `Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.dll` and enable tiered compilation, the jitting time drops to about `98.9ms`.
There a some differences in support of named pipes for Windows and non-Windows. Named pipes on Unix have a 104 character path limit. On macOS, the `$env:TMPDIR` (on my system) is already 49 characters; corefx adds 12 more. Since AppDomainName isn't really used, changed it from `DefaultAppDomain` to `None` to shorten the name. Need to keep it since Windows PowerShell expects it. Changed `starttime` part of pipe name to 8 hex characters which is to provide uniqueness to the pipe name.
