Research direction

Start with the packaged WinUI 3 reproduction in MainWindow.xaml using TabView CanTearOutTabs="True", and run it on the reported Windows App SDK version. Confirm that selecting a tab reproduces the crash, then trace the TabView tear-out path and verify that tab selection no longer crashes.
