This PR bumps Harden System Security to v1.0.45.0 and introduces new end-user functionality in the WinUI app (Service Manager + Battery Report), plus CLI robustness fixes around presets and report export.
Changes:
- Add a new Service Manager page/view-model for enumerating and managing Windows services.
- Add a Generate Battery Report action in the MainWindow sidebar that runs
powercfg /batteryreport. - Improve CLI/report export behavior by creating missing output directories and refining preset/CLI flows.

Added a new feature to the Sidebar that allows you to generate a Battery Report for your device (if it has one). It contains detailed information about your battery usage, wattage and performance.
When using the CLI mode to export the system report to a file, if you selected a location that doesn't exist, the app now creates the necessary directories and saves the report there instead of showing an error.
Fixed an error in the CLI mode when applying a preset: Error message from Microsoft Defender when applying presets using headless CLI #1062
