### Current Behavior

### Description
The issue arises when converting a MAUI View containing an image with a tint color to a platform-specific native view (e.g., Windows or Android). The IconTintColor behavior, which should apply a color tint to the image, is not preserved during the conversion process.

### Expected Behavior

**Android**

**Windows**
![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/a11f4218-00be-47fd-a050-c8cd52839e7d)

### Steps To Reproduce

### Steps to Reproduce

1.Create a CustomView with an ItemContent property of type View and an ItemTemplate property of type DataTemplate.
2. Add a CustomView handler for platform-specific implementations.
3.On the Windows platform, create a CustomControl derived from ContentControl.
4.On the Android platform, create a CustomControl derived from FrameLayout.
5.When adding an image to the ItemContent and ItemTemplate, the IconTintColor behavior is not applied.

Research direction

Start with the linked TintColor-Issue reproduction and inspect the platform-specific CustomView handlers, including the Windows CustomControl and Android CustomControl. Reproduce conversion with an image carrying IconTintColor; done means the tint remains applied in both platform views.
