.NET: [Feature Branch] Add Human In the Loop support for durable workflows (#4358)

* Add Azure Functions HITL workflow sample

Add 06_WorkflowHITL Azure Functions sample demonstrating Human-in-the-Loop
workflow support with HTTP endpoints for status checking and approval responses.

The sample includes:
- ExpenseReimbursement workflow with RequestPort for manager approval
- Custom HTTP endpoint to check workflow status and pending approvals
- Custom HTTP endpoint to send approval responses via RaiseEventAsync
- demo.http file with step-by-step interaction examples

* PR feedback fixes

* Minor comment cleanup

* Minor comment clReverted the `!context.IsReplaying` guards on `PendingEvents.Add`/`RemoveAll` and `SetCustomStatus` in `ExecuteRequestPortAsync`. The guards broke fan-out scenarios where parallel RequestPorts      need to be discoverable after replay. `SetCustomStatus` is idempotent metadata that doesn't affect replay determinism.eanup

* fix  for PR feedback

* PR feedback updates

* Improvements to samples

* Improvements to README

* Update samples to use parallel request ports.

* Unit tests

* Introduce local variables to improve readability of Workflows.Workflows access patter

* Use GitHub-style callouts and add PowerShell command variants in HITL sample README
