Generating multiple images from a single svg-file

See original GitHub issue

Description

If you have this in your .csproj-file:

<MauiImage Include="Resources\Images\logo.svg" TintColor="#66B3FF" />

A logo.png will be generated with the color #66B3FF. But I would like to generate multiple png-files from a single svg-file:

<MauiImage Include="Resources\Images\logo.svg" TintColor="#FF0000" Output="Logo_Red" />
<MauiImage Include="Resources\Images\logo.svg" TintColor="#0000FF" Output="Logo_Blue" />

Public API Changes

Some Output-attribute is needed in MauiImage.

Intended Use-Case

This is especially useful if you need to generate different images in dark- and light-mode.

This needs some further documentation.

@davidbritch would you be able to assist?

I think we need to articulate how to use the basic “Link” feature of MSBuild to show how you could include the same source svg multiple times to generate different outputs (eg: different basesize, color, etc):

<MauiImage Include="icon.svg" BaseSize="40,40">
  <Link>iconsmall.svg</Link>
</MauiImage>
<MauiImage Include="icon.svg" BaseSize="80,80">
  <Link>iconlarge.svg</Link>
</MauiImage>

@mattleibow is there maybe some code where we deduplicate the actual item identities here?
