Description

As part of https://github.com/microsoft/react-native-windows/pull/6318, AppVerifier was turned off to address test instability.

The theory is that this put too much pressure on the under-powered VMs we're currently using from the MSFT hosted agent pool.

Once we get the CI loop moved over to better hardware we should try re-enabling this. See https://github.com/microsoft/react-native-windows/issues/6226

Research direction

Read PR 6318 and issue 6226 first to understand why AppVerifier was disabled and what hardware change is required. Then inspect the E2E test CI configuration and hosted-agent setup. Done means AppVerifier is re-enabled after the CI loop moves to better hardware and the tests remain stable.
