  1. [release/13.5] Exclude unused hex1bpty.exe from published CLI archives ( 

    #19557)

* Exclude unused hex1bpty.exe from published CLI archives

Hex1b ships a hex1bpty.exe PTY host in its win-x64/win-arm64 native assets.
Aspire never takes that path: DCP owns every PTY we surface and
Aspire.TerminalHost only proxies the byte stream DCP already produces, so the
helper is ~5 MB of dead weight in each Windows CLI archive and inside every
Windows aspire.exe bundle payload. It also shows up as an unexplained second
executable in the winget submission, where every binary in the archive is run
through executable and malware checks.

Filter it out of publish for src/ projects. Test projects are untouched because
they drive real terminals through Hex1b.Automation, which does need the helper.
Unix keeps libhex1binterop.{so,dylib}, the termios/ioctl shim the TUI P/Invokes.
