Missing .pri resource generation for MSIX packages (images/scales not recognized correctly) #28

Hi,
I noticed that resource index generation is missing (resources.pri).

From my understanding, Windows expects a .pri file (generated with makepri) so it can correctly detect and use packaged resources (for example image variants like scale-qualified assets, plated/unplated logos, etc.).

Without the .pri, Windows does not always recognize the available images correctly.

Reference:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/app-resources/compile-resources-manually-with-makepri

What I expected:

Build process generates resources.pri as part of the package/appx content step.
What happens now: MSIX builds, but no .pri is generated.

I'm happy to make a PR but I'm unsure where this should be implemented (In this repo or better the cli)
