Unable to dismiss the lock screen in recent builds of Windows 10

It has always been possible to dismiss the lock screen on Win 10 by the invoke pattern of the UIA element for the lock screen container (parent containing the date/time and network status etc). However in recent builds this element had changed such that NVDA no longer recognised it as having a presentation type of content and therefore would skip it when exploring with touch. This container should be classed as content so that it can be explored and then invoked with double tap.

The Windows 10 lock screen can now be dismissed using a touch screen.

Add a lockApp appModule for the Win 10 lock screen, so that it is possible to touch explore to the lock screen container itself thus then allowing dismissal of the screen with a double tap.
Fixes #5220.
