PR Summary
This PR implements the Custom Remote Connections RFC:
https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell-RFC/blob/master/Archive/Draft/RFC0063-Custom-Remote-Connections.md
PR Context
These changes open up the internal PowerShell remoting API so that custom connections can be created as PowerShell modules. This PR does not introduce any new functions, and instead selectively makes some previously internal APIs public so that third parties can create custom remote connections without modifying PowerShell core engine code. See the above RFC for more details.
A new module repo has been created to serve as an example custom connection, by using the newly public API to create a named pipe custom remote connection. The module is also built in PowerShell CI to allow for testing.
This module will be transferred to the PowerShell repo at some point.
