[Breaking Change]
When a binary module has the module assembly in GAC, we load the assembly from GAC before trying to load it from module base path.
This change attempts to load it from module base path before looking up in GAC.

There is specific code that sets the `OutputFormat` to xml if pwsh is run non-interactive, with redirected output, and the command was encoded. However, it ignored whether OutputFormat was specified. Fix is to track whether `-OutputFormat` was used and respect that value rather than defaulting to xml.

Add new parameters in Get-Culture cmdlet:
-Name - to allow retrieving a specific culture
-NoUserOverrides - ignore user changes for current culture
-ListAvalable - to allow retrieving all cultures supported on the platform
- Add new Offset and Count parameters.
- Modify ByteCollection class to support offsets up to UInt64.MaxValue size.
- Hide/obsolete Raw parameter because the behavior is by default.
- Optimize conversion to bytes to reduce allocations for large input data.
The root cause is that `OutputBuffer` is not cleaned up (set to `null`) in `Stop` and `BeginStop/EndStop` when the powershell instance owns the `OutputBuffer` object. Since the pipeline has been intentionally stopped by the caller, the `OutputBuffer` should be set to `null` as well when it's owned by the PowerShell instance, just like how it's cleaned up in `EndInvoke`.
- Adds y suffix that is used to specify a numeric literal as the sbyte data type.
- Can be combined with the existing u suffix as uy to specify the byte data type.
The type System.IntPtr has an explicit cast operator defined that takes a pointer type System.void* parameter. Now we handle that type properly in GetPSMethodProjectedType.
Fixes#7230.
Adding the concept of a PSSyntheticTypeName, derived from PSTypeName,
that extends it with a list of synthetic members.
This allows us to express the inferred type of
```
[pscustomobject] @{
A = 1
B = "2"
}
```
as a "PSObject#A:B" and with information about the types of A and B.
This is also used to annotate the output of
```
Select-Object -Property
Select-Object -ExcludeProperty
Select-Object -ExpandProperty
```
Finally, it adds information about the types of the
`Group` and `Value` properties of the output of `Group-Object`
'cd +' adds the ability to revert 'cd -' by having another bounded stack with the same limit for 'redo' actions.
Behaviour is similar to back/forward navigation in explorer.exe
When the location is set to a path and the redo stack is non-empty then the redo stack gets flushed.
When cd + happens, then the redo stack is pushed to as well for a more intuitive way of navigating backwards and forwards.
All the work is done of course on the Set-location cmdlet, which is aliased to cd on all platforms.
Support calling methods with ByRef-like type parameters in PowerShell, as long as the argument specified for the parameter can be implicitly/explicitly converted to the ByRef-like type.
We cannot create an instance of a ByRef-like type in PowerShell, but there are types that can be implicitly or explicitly converted to ByRef-like types, such as `T[] -> Span<T>`, `T[] -> ReadOnlySpan<T>`, `String -> ReadOnlySpan<T>`. `ArraySegment<T> -> Span<T>`, `ArraySegment<T> -> ReadOnlySpan<T>`. With changes in this PR, we can call methods with ByRef-like parameter types by providing the arguments of the types that can be cast to the target ByRef-like type.
**What is enabled?**
1. Invoking methods that have ByRef-like parameters, but the return type is not ByRef-like.
2. Invoking constructors with ByRef-like parameters via `[target-type]::new` syntax, but the `target-type` is not ByRef-like.
3. Accessing indexers that have ByRef-like parameters, but the return type is not ByRef-like.
This change updates ModuleIntrinsics.GetModulePath to handle the case where the Windows PowerShell module path is already in the environment's PSModulePath or when launched from a different version of PowerShell.
Previously, GetModulePath would append $PSHOME\Modules to the PSModulePath after removing the path for the launching version without considering the Windows PowerShell module path. The result, was the Windows PowerShell modules were found first and loaded incompatible modules; such as the built-in modules.
The change detects the Windows PowerShell module path and inserts $PSHOME\Modules path before it. The new test simulates launching from a different version of pwsh that has already added the Windows PowerShell module path.
