Description
### Describe the bug
_[originally discovered here](https://github.com/CommunityToolkit/Labs-Windows/pull/354#issuecomment-1487539780)_
```
"D:\a\Labs-Windows\Labs-Windows\CommunityToolkit.AllComponents.sln" (default target) (1:2) ->
"D:\a\Labs-Windows\Labs-Windows\tooling\ProjectHeads\AllComponents\Tests.WinAppSdk\CommunityToolkit.Tests.WinAppSdk.csproj" (default target) (27:6) ->
(_HandleFileConflictsForPublish target) ->
C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk\6.0.407\Sdks\Microsoft.NET.Sdk\targets\Microsoft.NET.ConflictResolution.targets(112,5): error NETSDK1152: Found multiple publish output files with the same relative path: D:\a\Labs-Windows\Labs-Windows\components\Shimmer\samples\Assets\Owl.jpg, D:\a\Labs-Windows\Labs-Windows\components\TransitionHelper\samples\Assets\Owl.jpg.

```
In this case we had two components **Shimmer** and **TransitionHelper** which had a `samples\Assets\Owl.jpg` file. When the build went to include both these components it got confused.
----
We need to better identify this issue locally with an analyzer to alert a dev as an error during development (duplicate file name across repo) [easier?] or figure out how to merge resources into a cohesive collection which can still work for all the code relying on those images [hard?].
### Steps to reproduce
```text
Create two components
Setup an image with the same name in both sample directories and include in project
Try and build the all-up solution
```
### Expected behavior
Able to _either_:
- identify duplicates across components and alert developer
- use assets with the same name

### Additional context
Maybe we should also think about some centralized assets that all samples have access to in case they just need an image or two to include?
### Help us help you
Yes, but only if others can assist.
