* Disable "Microsoft account" notification source
* [WinPE] Remove driver addition block for WinPE
WE DO NOT TOUCH THE DRIVERS IN WinPE. There are reports of people getting "Install driver to show hardware" screens all over this repository, and on Discord; and the less drivers we touch in WinPE, the better.
Drivers can still be added to Preinstallation Environments in the following ways:
- Using the driver installation screens
- Firing up "drvload.exe <driver>" in cmd

* Checks if password exists for the user, if it doesn't the user is prompted to create one.
It checks if the password is equal to $null using `ValidateCredentials` and if it isn't the variable will be created. If it is equal to $null, a window with text, a textbox and a button will appear asking the user to create a password. That password is then set for the user and the winget installation continues.
* Made this a little more secure
Securing the password variable when it gets created and deleting it after it's done being used.
* Forces the user to input their password and automatically puts their username into the credentials box
* Removed the second greater than 0 check
* Adaptive Busy Icon + Message
- added adaptive color & message of busy indicator
- fixed placement at some places for "Set-WinUtilTaskbaritem" as dialogbox which waits for user input came before

It just adds the `$null =` from the else to the start of the add line if the package is equal to `na`.
For winget the package added is put into an extra set of $(), because of how it is in the else. I haven't tested it without.

* Have a fallback method for Recall fixes
Go back to the delayed disablement procedure if we fail at modifying the manifest
* Ignore Recall disablement when disabled, and more
- If Recall is disabled, don't disable it again. This may be a waste of time
- Disable certain notification sources that I think are quite annoying, like those from Suggested or the Startup App Notification
* Hopefully? Get rid of News and Interests on Win10
Based on PR #3289, add News and Interests removal to MicroWin. Hopefully Windows 10 gets to cooperate this time, compared to last time, where it was quite stubborn.
*This means that people never give up trying to fight against something they don't like*
* Revert "Refactor preferChocolatey system to handle other package managers eas…" (#3323)
This reverts commit 89919494e5.
* Fixed all the things that could possibly break
* Get rid of extra parameter
Package removal fallback fails here. Quite likely a copy from feature disablement

* Package exclusion improvements
- Removed AppX packages from OS package exclusion list
- Added exclusion of PowerShell ISE (source: Discord server - yes, some people still use the PowerShell ISE)
* Exclude Windows Photo Viewer from dir removal
* Improve copy operation to Ventoy drives
This change may fix the issues where there's a conflict between both Ventoy's and MicroWin's unattended answer files, causing target images to stop working as expected during OOBE
