Pull request overview

Updates the WinForms and WPF “What’s new” docs to reflect .NET 11 Preview 6, including refreshed metadata, an added Preview 6 release-announcement link, and new preview-specific bullets describing recent fixes.

Changes:

  • Updated WinForms and WPF .NET 11 preview “what’s new” pages with Preview 6 release timing and the Preview 6 release-announcement link.
  • Added new Preview 6 content bullets (WinForms ToolStripDropDown focus handling, and WPF self-contained app ijwhost.dll packaging plus additional bug fixes).
  • Updated the preview release updater agent guidance to keep titles/H1/descriptions generic while still updating the release-date sentence and aka.ms links.

  • This bullet still says "Only the top metadata" indicates "Preview N", but the updated rules in this file now keep title/H1/description generic (no specific preview/RC number). Update this line to reflect that only the released-in sentence and aka.ms links carry the specific preview/RC number.
- When updating for a new preview, you update the release date sentence with the new preview number and add the new aka.ms link. The title, H1, and description remain generic (".NET 11 {Preview|RC}" without a specific number).
- New content items are ADDED to the existing body sections. You DO NOT move existing content to a "previous preview" section. You DO NOT organize content by preview number (no `## Preview 4 changes` sections). You DO NOT replace existing content.
- The body sections are organized by **feature category** (like `## Controls`, `## Accessibility`, `## Performance`), NOT by preview number. These category sections contain all changes from all previews to date. New items are merged into these sections alongside existing items.
- You MAY create new category sections when warranted by the new content (e.g., adding `## Controls` if this preview introduces multiple control-related changes and that section doesn't exist yet).
- Only the top metadata and the aka.ms link list indicate "this is Preview N" — the body remains cumulative.
