AutomationId based on name fix

[petvetbr]

Set AutomationId based on x:Name property

Now the AutomationId property is set according to the control x:Name property.

For NumericUpDown:

• Textbox: "PART_TextBox{x:Name value}"
• DownButton : "PART_NumericDown{x:Name value}"
• UpButton: "PART_NumericUp{x:Name value}"

For Flyout:

-NavButton: "nav{x:Name value}"
#2166

@thoemmi What do you think? /cc @xxMUROxx

I don't know anything about the automation API, but it looks fine for me 😊

Can someone explain in short what Automation is useful for?

[petvetbr]

@xxMUROxx there are 2 areas where automation is used a lot:

Automated UI tests
Accessibility

In both it is important to manipulate the UI using alternatives to de usual keyboard/mouse/touch methods, so that is when automation comes into play.

@petvetbr Ah, ok. Then I think the same behavior is missing for other custom controls that are implemented in this library too. e.g. ToggleSwith, DropDownButton, SplitButton, etc...

Ok, I´ll take a look at the other controls and see if I can make them more "automation friendly",
