Description

As we move away from window messages and HWNDs, we will eventually want to move away from using MS::RN::ForwardWindowMessage for updating size changes. This issue is here to track the work.

          Do we have an issue to switch this over to a real API that takes a size.  Something like MS::RN::NotifyOfWindowSizeChanged(rns, size);

Research direction

Start by locating DeviceInfoModule and the MS::RN::ForwardWindowMessage path in the repository, then trace how size changes are currently forwarded. Done means the tracked size-change work has a concrete size-taking API direction and the existing message-based path is addressed.
