Release Notes

## v0.73.0

### Shared runtime framework packages (#130)
- New-MsixFrameworkPackage: build a Framework=true package from a runtime
 folder (JRE/.NET/Python/shared libs) - one servicing point for N apps.
- Add-MsixRuntimeDependency: PackageDependency + optional env wiring
 (-Runtime Java -> JAVA_HOME, DotNet -> DOTNET_ROOT, custom vars with the
 {frameworkRoot} token) against the computed WindowsApps root. DLL-based
 runtimes need no wiring (package-graph DLL search).
- Get-MsixBundledRuntime (new scanner): trait-based detection of private
 JRE/.NET/Python copies with size accounting; BundledRuntime findings;
 autofix strips + wires via opt-in -DeduplicateBundledRuntime with an
 EXPLICIT framework identity (never guessed).

### Modification packages, completed (#131)
- New-MsixModificationPackage -RegistryContent: layer SETTINGS, not just
 files - HKLM/HKCU key/value hashtables become Registry.dat / User.dat via
 the offline-registry helpers.
- ConvertTo-MsixModificationPackage: productize the golden-image delta -
 diff vendor vs customized copy, stage added/changed files, emit the
 uap4:MainPackageDependency package.
- Test-MsixDeployment -ModificationPackagePaths: the runtime loop installs
 modification packages after the main app and reports
 ModificationsInstalled on the verdict.

(0.72.0 was source-only; this release also carries its features: msixbundle
handling, resources.pri regeneration, Test-MsixDeployment, and the
in-process SignerSignEx signing backend. Full history: CHANGELOG.md.)
