Description
What problem are you trying to solve?
I would happily migrate my .net10 WinForms app to WinUI3, but currently this tool only have winui-wpf-migration skill, not winforms-migration.
Proposed solution
Prepare a nice winforms-migration skill, that is able to re-create the same UI structure, reconnect the action handlers, try to solve the not existent data-binding functionality.

Research direction
Review the existing winui-wpf-migration skill, which is the stated reference, and determine how a corresponding WinForms migration skill should be structured. Define the supported UI recreation, action-handler reconnection, and data-binding cases; completion means the skill can address those migration tasks for a .NET 10 WinForms app.
