Remove the GVFlt compatibility shim project (legacy ProjFS predecessor) and all DiskLayout upgrade paths that depend on ManagedEsent (layouts 7→8, 8→9, 9→10, 13→14). These upgrades are 6+ years old and no longer needed. Raise minimum supported disk layout version from 7 to 15. Users on ancient layouts must upgrade through an intermediate GVFS version first. Removes ManagedEsent, Microsoft.Database.Collections.Generic, and Microsoft.Database.Isam NuGet packages entirely. Assisted-by: Claude Opus 4.6 Signed-off-by: Tyrie Vella <tyrielv@gmail.com>

tyrielv/net10-central-packages. GitHub will retarget tomasteronce microsoft#1937 merges.Summary
Remove the GVFlt compatibility shim project (legacy ProjFS predecessor) and all DiskLayout upgrade paths that depend on ManagedEsent (layouts 7→8, 8→9, 9→10, 13→14). These upgrades are 6+ years old and no longer needed.
Raises minimum supported disk layout version from 7 to 15. Users on ancient layouts must upgrade through an intermediate GVFS version first.
Removes ManagedEsent, Microsoft.Database.Collections.Generic, and Microsoft.Database.Isam NuGet packages entirely — eliminates a .NET Framework-only dependency that has no .NET 5+ target and would block updating.
