fix: setup for rn-windows

[Victor0814gui]

Description

I added only a few basic configurations so that the autolink in react-native-windows recognizes the library. I followed the recommendations from https://microsoft.github.io/react-native-windows/docs/native-modules-setup.

Steps To Reproduce

Follow these steps at https://microsoft.github.io/react-native-windows/docs/getting-started and create a React Native app. Then, run npx react-native autolink-windows. You'll notice that the file LottieReactNative.vsxproj is not present in the solutions list.

Expected Results

The LottieReactNative.vcxproj file should appear in the list of solutions.

Hmmm. I can't run anything locally right now, since I don't have a windows machine and i am a bit hesitant about touching anything in core. I'll run the CI to see if anything breaks with this in our current setup in the meantime and maybe we can update the examples to include windows so we can test these properly. @matinzd what do you think?

Good question, I also hesitated to make any changes to the core in an inappropriate way. To keep this as transparent and clear as possible, I will add CI to see if anything breaks on Windows. I believe this is a critical bug, as without it, lottie-react-native 6.x.x doesn't work on Windows.

A basic summary of what I did in this last change: the dependency on react-native-windows in the example was at version 0.71.18 and has been updated to 0.72.24. Additionally, I modified the Example.sln file to use the correct paths for the node_modules folder, and updated the version of Microsoft.UI.Xaml from 2.6.0 to 2.8.0. Finally, concluding with the CI correction.

Left one change that i think is important. The rest looks good. I'll let the CI run and once all the stuff is resolved, we can merge. One question though, mostly out of curiosity, does the linking for Example.sln need to be handled manually? Does RNW not have some sort of Auto linking for these?

The CI failed again. Looks like it is missing an SDK:

I fixed the absence of the SDK and added an extra step to check which SDKs are installed👍.

The Workflow file is being reported as invalid. I believe you have a typo on Line 33:
