Description
### Describe the bug
After switching from UAP/UWP to Windows App SDK and WinUI 3, I have (only) unknown failures in the "Health" insights in the Windows Partner Center analytics for my app, with no stack traces or (mini)dumps.
Is this a known issue/expected behavior or is there something I can do to change this? Note that I always include public pdb symbols for debugging when I generate my msixupload packages.
### Steps to reproduce the bug
1. Create a Windows App SDK app (separate WinUI 3 app and package projects)
2. Submit to Windows Partner Center
### Expected behavior
Some information should be visible in the Partner Center analytics
### Screenshots


### NuGet package version
Windows App SDK 1.7.0: 1.7.250310001
### Packaging type
Packaged (MSIX)
### Windows version
Windows 11 version 24H2 (22621, October 2024 Update)
### IDE
Visual Studio 2022-preview
### Additional context
Application is C#/.NET 9 with the following publish profile (pubxml):
```xml
FileSystem
x64
win-x64
bin\win-x64\publish\
true
False
True
True
Release
net9.0-windows10.0.22621
```
