WinApp SDK 2.0+ is needed for WebView2 Xaml control to work in nested islands scenario.

Anupriya Verma (@anupriya13) WinAppSDK 1.8.5 can have the fixed bits to avoid bumping RNW's WinAppSDK version to 2.0 from 1.8.2 (current). We need to backport/service the fix to 1.8.5 (upcoming).

Sundaram Ramaswamy (@sundaramramaswamy) Have you managed to get the scaling working right? I'm having trouble getting the content to match the available size.
It seems to be showing at 100% even when the display is > 100%.
I've found a workaround...I don't love it, but it works.
On the react side, I can do the following to correct the scaling issue on RNW.
transform: [{ scale: Platform.OS === 'windows' ? PixelRatio.get() : 1 }],

How are we looking on this? Having the xamlisland sit on top of everything creates a number of issues.
