Refactor Gui project to be general purpose

See original GitHub issue

Right now, we have OutGridView.Gui which obviously only supplies the GUI side of Out-GridView.

When we want to add other GUI tools like Show-Command and the likes we should refactor & rename OutGridView.Gui to GraphicalTools.Gui and figure out a way to signal GraphicalTools.Gui to show the Show-Command GUI instead of the Out-GridView GUI. This would allow us to reuse the Avalonia dlls that take up a lot of space.

As this is for Avalonia and we’re no longer investing in that, closing this issue.

I’ve started on this to help me wrap my head around how the function works.

I’ve broken it into a few steps of which I’m only on step 1:

Rename the OutGridView directories/files and references to the files themselves
Rename code references to OutGridView that are in the GraphicalTools.Gui and GraphicalTools.Model
Add a GuiComponent to ApplicationData that can be used to tell GraphicalTools what component has been called.

Once I’m done step 2 I’ll open a Pull Request while debating step 3.
