Description

### Description

I would like to create a inventory management system using MAUI; warehouses currently use a mixture of Barcodes, QR codes, RFID and NFC tagged products and/or stillages. It would be good if MAUI provided as part of the essentials namespace NFC support for devices.

### Public API Changes

var nfc = new NFC();
nfc.event+=processEvent;
await nfc.ListenAsync( );

### Intended Use-Case

holding the device up to/close to a NFC tag would trigger the event with the event args containing the NFC tag data

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing .NET MAUI Essentials APIs and how device-specific capabilities are exposed. The issue names no files or tests; completion would require an agreed NFC API that can listen for tags and expose their data through event arguments across supported devices.
