Description

We’re using a aka.ms links, https://aka.ms/dotnet-illink/windows-forms and https://aka.ms/dotnet-illink/wpf, to point developers to know more about dangers on trimming with WinForms and WPF applications. It currently points to the main doc [trimming ](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/deploying/trim-self-contained) page. That page has a brief description of WinForms and WPF applications being incompatible with trimming but it will be good to have a separate pages to address this.
