Add support for dragging and dropping paths onto the Terminal #4323

Summary of the Pull Request

I took the code from conhost that handles this and just copy-pasted it into the terminal codebase.

Original conhost code:

terminal/src/interactivity/win32/windowproc.cpp

Lines 854 to 889 in 027f122

           // - It initially calls DragQueryFile() to calculate the number of files dropped and then DragQueryFile() is called to retrieve the filename. 
        
           // - DoStringPaste() pastes the filename to the console window 
        
           // Arguments: 
        
           // - wParam  - Identifies the structure containing the filenames of the dropped files.

                   }

Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

Okay it was a little more complicated than that. I had IslandWindow handle the drop, which then raises a generic event for AppHost to handle. AppHost handles this by writing the path as input to the terminal, traversing AppLogic, TerminalPage and finally landing in TermControl

Validation Steps Performed

Tested manually with both paths with and without spaces.

Not sure I like this- it won't work with universal terminal or anything that doesn't have a wndproc. Is there a XAML event we can listen to?

You've got a good point - I'll do that instead.

Love it! We can probably back out all the non-TermControl changes, right?

carlos-zamora

A few minor things but nothing worth blocking over.

I saw nothing that Carlos didn't. Holding the check until Carlos's comments are complete, though.
