Description
Some customers require being able to consume RNW from a brownfield app just like they consume xaml controls from libraries (i.e. no changes to the app code itself). This tracks creating a UserControl that encapsulates a ReactRootView and the logic to set up an ReactInstance

Research direction
Start by locating the Windows UserControl and ReactRootView integration points, then trace how a ReactInstance is set up for a brownfield app. Done means a ReactNativeIsland control encapsulates those pieces so customers can consume RNW like a XAML library control without changing app code.
