Bring back the WinRT OOP server.

I managed to make it work under both normal and elevated environment. I have plans to offload some work to the WinRT server so that they can persist across different Files instances.

Do you know how much this increases the package size?

Shouldn't be large. The server itself is very compact, I forgot about the exact number but it should just be several MBs. After packaging it should be even smaller.

It seems to be about 4 MB, also keep in mind that #18885 added about 6 MB. It's not a blocking issue but these increases are adding up. I would like if we could reduce the size to be closer to 50 MB again.

The size can be much smaller once we migrate to CsWinRT 3.0. CsWinRT hasn't been released yet but it's close.
