Issue for this PR
Closes #46473
Type of change
What does this PR do?
Gives the unpackaged Electron desktop process its own Windows AppUserModelID instead of reusing the installed Dev application's identity.
The existing Dev user-data directory and every packaged channel ID remain unchanged. This prevents stale Electron shortcuts or pins from taking over the installed Dev taskbar group while preserving the taskbar identity setup introduced in #23368.

N/A — this changes the native Windows process identity used for taskbar association; the regression test covers the packaged and unpackaged identity contract.
