## Summary of the Pull Request
In the original implementation, we used two different orderings for the color tables. The WT color table used ANSI order, while the conhost color table used a Windows-specific order. This PR standardizes on the ANSI color order everywhere, so the usage of indexed colors is consistent across both parts of the code base, which will hopefully allow more of the code to be shared one day.

This is another small step towards de-duplicating `AdaptDispatch` and `TerminalDispatch` for issue #3849, and is essentially a followup to the SGR dispatch refactoring in PR #6728.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
Conhost still needs to deal with legacy attributes using Windows color order, so those values now need to be transposed to ANSI colors order when creating a `TextAttribute` object. This is done with a simple mapping table, which also handles the translation of the default color entries, so it's actually slightly faster than the original code.
And when converting `TextAttribute` values back to legacy console attributes, we were already using a mapping table to handle the narrowing of 256-color values down to 16 colors, so we just needed to adjust that table to account for the translation from ANSI to Windows, and then could make use of the same table for both 256-color and 16-color values.
There are also a few places in conhost that read from or write to the color tables, and those now need to transpose the index values. I've addressed this by creating separate `SetLegacyColorTableEntry` and `GetLegacyColorTableEntry` methods in the `Settings` class which take care of the mapping, so it's now clearer in which cases the code is dealing with legacy values, and which are ANSI values.
These methods are used in the `SetConsoleScreenBufferInfoEx` and `GetConsoleScreenBufferInfoEx` APIs, as well as a few place where color preferences are handled (the registry, shortcut links, and the properties dialog), none of which are particularly sensitive to performance. However, we also use the legacy table when looking up the default colors for rendering (which happens a lot), so I've refactored that code so the default color calculations now only occur once per frame.
The plus side of all of this is that the VT code doesn't need to do the index translation anymore, so we can finally get rid of all the calls to `XTermToWindowsIndex`, and we no longer need a separate color table initialization method for conhost, so I was able to merge a number of color initialization methods into one. We also no longer need to translate from legacy values to ANSI when generating VT sequences for conpty.
The one exception to that is the 16-color VT renderer, which uses the `TextColor::GetLegacyIndex` method to approximate 16-color equivalents for RGB and 256-color values. Since that method returns a legacy index, it still needs to be translated to ANSI before it can be used in a VT sequence. But this should be no worse than it was before.
One more special case is conhost's secret _Color Selection_ feature. That uses `Ctrl`+Number and `Alt`+Number key sequences to highlight parts of the buffer, and the mapping from number to color is based on the Windows color order. So that mapping now needs to be transposed, but that's also not performance sensitive.
The only thing that I haven't bothered to update is the trace logging code in the `Telemetry` class, which logs the first 16 entries in the color table. Those entries are now going to be in a different order, but I didn't think that would be of great concern to anyone.
## Validation Steps Performed
A lot of unit tests needed to be updated to use ANSI color constants when setting indexed colors, where before they might have been expecting values in Windows order. But this replaced a wild mix of different constants, sometimes having to use bit shifting, as well as values mapped with `XTermToWindowsIndex`, so I think the tests are a whole lot clearer now. Only a few cases have been left with literal numbers where that seemed more appropriate.
In addition to getting the unit tests working, I've also manually tested the behaviour of all the console APIs which I thought could be affected by these changes, and confirmed that they produced the same results in the new code as they did in the original implementation.
This includes:
- `WriteConsoleOutput`
- `ReadConsoleOutput`
- `SetConsoleTextAttribute` with `WriteConsoleOutputCharacter`
- `FillConsoleOutputAttribute` and `FillConsoleOutputCharacter`
- `ScrollConsoleScreenBuffer`
- `GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo`
- `GetConsoleScreenBufferInfoEx`
- `SetConsoleScreenBufferInfoEx`
I've also manually tested changing colors via the console properties menu, the registry, and shortcut links, including setting default colors and popup colors. And I've tested that the "Quirks Mode" is still working as expected in PowerShell.
In terms of performance, I wrote a little test app that filled a 80x9999 buffer with random color combinations using `WriteConsoleOutput`, which I figured was likely to be the most performance sensitive call, and I think it now actually performs slightly better than the original implementation.
I've also tested similar code - just filling the visible window - with SGR VT sequences of various types, and the performance seems about the same as it was before.
These functions have a dependency on the "VT Redirected" versions of
VkKeyScanW, MapVirtualKeyW and GetKeyState. Those implementations depend
on the service locator and therefore the entire interactivity stack.
This meant that anybody depending on just Types had to pull in **the
entire host** worth of dependencies (!).
Since these functions are only used in places where we have or are
testing interactivity, it makes sense to consolidate them here.
(cherry picked from commit 8f73145d9d)
Many include statements use forward slashes, while others use backwards
slashes. This is inconsistent formatting. For this reason, I changed the
backward slashes to forward slashes since that is the standard.
This is a refactoring of the renderer color calculations to simplify the
implementation, and to make it easier to support additional
color-altering rendition attributes in the future (e.g. _faint_ and
_conceal_).

complexity in the color calculations, and which suggested the need for
refactoring.
## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
When we added support for `DECSCNM`, that required the foreground and
background color lookup methods to be able to return the opposite of
what was requested when the reversed mode was set. That made those
methods unnecessarily complicated, and I thought we could simplify them
considerably just by combining the calculations into a single method
that derived both colors at the same time.
And since both conhost and Windows Terminal needed to perform the same
calculations, it also made sense to move that functionality into the
`TextAttribute` class, where it could easily be shared.
In general this way of doing things is a bit more efficient. However, it
does result in some unnecessary work when only one of the colors is
required, as is the case for the gridline painter. So to make that less
of an issue, I've reordered the gridline code a bit so it at least
avoids looking up the colors when no gridlines are needed.
## Validation Steps Performed
Because of the API changes, quite a lot of the unit tests had to be
updated. For example instead of verifying colors with two separate calls
to `LookupForegroundColor` and `LookupBackgroundColor`, that's now
achieved with a single `LookupAttributeColors` call, comparing against a
pair of values. The specifics of the tests haven't changed though, and
they're all still working as expected.
I've also manually confirmed that the various color sequences and
rendition attributes are rendering correctly with the new refactoring.
Web apps apparently will paste the <title> as plaintext before the
actual HTML content from the clipboard. Since this seems to be
widespread behavior across web apps, this isn't just a bug in _some
app_, this is a bug on us. We shouldn't emit the title.
This PR removes the title tag from the generated HTML.

## Summary of the Pull Request
`GetTextForClipboard` already exists in the TextBuffer. It makes sense to use that for UIA as well. This changes the behavior or `GetText()` such that it does not remove leading/trailing whitespace anymore. That is more of an expected behavior.

This also contributes to...
- #4509: UIA Box Selection
- #2447: UIA Signaling for Selection
- #1354: UIA support for Wide Glyphs
Now that the expansion occurs at before render-time, the selection anchors are an accurate representation of what is selected. We just need to move GetText to the TextBuffer. Then we can have those three issues just rely on code from the text buffer. This also means ConHost gets some of this stuff for free 😀
## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
- `TextBuffer::GetTextForClipboard()` --> `GetText()`
- `TextBuffer::GetText()` no longer requires GetForegroundColor/GetBackgroundColor. If either of these are not defined, we return a `TextAndColor` with only the `text` field populated.
- renamed a few parameters for copying text to the clipboard for clarity
- Updated `UiaTextRange::GetText()` to use `TextBuffer::GetText()`
## Validation Steps Performed
Manual tests for UIA using accessibility insights and Windows Terminal's copy action (w/ and w/out shift)
Added tests as well.

I generally try to ignore upstream bits. I've accidentally included some items from the `deps/` directory. I expect someone will give me a list of items to drop, I'm happy to drop whole files/directories, or to split the PR into multiple items (E.g. comments/locals/public).
Closes#4294
RTF data is now copied to the clipboard. The clipboard format name
used for RTF data is `Rich Text Format`.
Refactored some code in `Clipboard.cpp` so that the code for setting
data to the clipboard is re-used. Also, renamed parameter
`fAlsoCopyHtml` to `fAlsoCopyFormatting` to make it more generic.
Tested by copying text from console to WordPad. Also verified that
HTML copy is not regressed by copying to Word.
Closes#3560.
conhost has been leaving the clipboard open for all HTML copies because
StringCchCopyA needs an extra byte for the null terminator and we
haven't been giving it one. We should also make sure that we always
close the clipboard (always).
