FindEntityInRelevantAssemblies now uses the metadata-level FindEntity
instead of parsing the ID string into type-system references and
resolving them per assembly. Two behaviors of the old path need
explicit handling because FindEntity only searches the modules it is
handed: reference assemblies are skipped so the search prefers an
assembly with a usable definition, and a member whose declaring type is
present only as a type forwarder is looked up in the assembly the
forwarder points to, which the assembly resolver may load on demand
(the old path got this through DecompilerTypeSystem resolution).

The Avalonia port had placed the UI app in an ILSpy.* namespace tree,
while the csproj RootNamespace and every prior release (through 10.1)
use ICSharpCode.ILSpy.*. Restoring the historical namespace reduces the
public API diff against release/10.1 for plugin authors and removes the
shadowing that forced global:: qualifiers in the test project. The
Images class and AccessOverlayIcon enum move back into the root
namespace (as in 10.1), since an ICSharpCode.ILSpy.Images namespace
would shadow the Images class for all code inside ICSharpCode.ILSpy.

The startup welcome page renders the same About content in the reusable main tab. Help > About opened a second, static About tab beside it, so the user saw the page twice. Track the welcome content and, while it is still the live main-tab content, have Help > About activate it rather than open the singleton. Falls through to the singleton once a tree-node selection has replaced the welcome page.

Two first-run behaviours that the previous version had and the port had
lost. When a launch has nothing to restore (no saved tree path, no
command-line target), greet the user with the About page in the main
tab instead of an empty "(no selection)" view; the greeting is fired
after the tree is ready and only takes the main tab when it's still
empty and active, so it can't steal activation from a tab the user
opened meanwhile (e.g. Compare...). And seed the default list with the
.NET framework ILSpy itself runs on - every managed assembly in the
running runtime's shared-framework directory. Headless tests opt out of
that seed (re-opening ~150 assemblies per test is ~10x slower) and fall
back to the minimal trio, leaving their expectations unchanged.

DecompileAsEnumerableTest exercises the full path: open mscorlib, navigate
to Enumerable.AsEnumerable, render the decompilation, verify text and
verify the row centred in the assembly tree. Writing it surfaced two
pre-existing bugs the manual smoke-test missed:
- Hold AssemblyListManager on AssemblyTreeModel and mirror its
AssemblyLists collection so the toolbar combo can bind to it.
- New ActiveListName ([ObservableProperty]); OnActiveListNameChanged
loads the named list via the manager and rebuilds Root.
- The "seed initial assemblies if empty" fallback now only triggers
for the (Default) list, so switching to an empty user list doesn't
auto-populate it.
- MainToolBar AssemblyListComboBox bound to AssemblyLists /
ActiveListName (TwoWay).

Adds the assembly tree pane (DataGrid-based, ProDataGrid hierarchical
rows), the SharpTreeNode-derived node type skeletons it consumes, the
empty MainToolBar placeholder, the ILSpySettings file-path provider
wiring in App.axaml.cs, and the AssemblyTreeModel.Initialize() hook in
the MainWindow code-behind.
