Pull request overview

This PR enhances Win11Debloat’s GUI “App Removal” experience by adding sorting, recommendation indicators, quick-select presets sourced from Apps.json, and a contextual hint bubble, while also refactoring several previously inlined functions into dedicated script files.

Changes:

• Added sortable app table columns, recommendation indicators, and a “Quick Select” presets popup (including JSON-defined presets and “last used” selection).
• Refactored helper/threading/app-removal/feature execution logic into separate Scripts/* files and updated imports.
• Extended Apps.json schema (v1.1) with Recommendation metadata and a new Presets section; added a reusable BubbleHint UI.

• The required-file guard was updated for BubbleHint.xaml, but the PR also introduces new required script paths (e.g., $script:LoadAppsDetailsScriptPath / Scripts/GUI/Show-Bubble.ps1 / Scripts/Threading/*). If any of these are missing, dot-sourcing will fail later with a less actionable error. Consider expanding this startup check to include the new required script files so failures are caught early with a clear message.
