IViewManager for working with the UI SyrveAgent

A new IViewManager has been implemented for working with the user interface of SyrveAgent (ServiceControl).

Context

When adding buttons to the Windows service menu of SyrveAgent through AddButtonToWindowsServiceMenu, plugins gain access to IViewManager for displaying dialogs and controls.

Implemented Features

Data Selection and Input:

Example Usage

PluginContext.Operations.AddButtonToWindowsServiceMenu("Plugin Settings", (vm) =>
{
    var input = vm.ShowInputDialog("Enter value", InputDialogTypes.Number, null, "OK", "Cancel");
    if (input != null)
    {
        vm.ShowOkPopup("Setting saved", $"Value: {input}");
    }
});

This allows plugins to create a full-fledged user interface for working through the Windows service SyrveAgent without the need for SyrveFront.
