Inject Win11 Creator drivers per package instead of one batch (#5048)

Browse Source 
* fix(iso): inject drivers per package

Add each root package folder separately so one bad driver cannot fail the rest. The batch form is roughly four times faster. That cost is accepted for one deterministic code path

* Preserve retained nested driver packages

* Discard partial driver injection attempts

* Remove excluded nested driver INFs

**Optional: Driver Injection**
- If enabled, it injects all drivers from your current system into the install.wim and boot.wim — useful for offline installations on machines with missing drivers. This is an optional checkbox in Step 3.
- If enabled, WinUtil exports the drivers from your current system, stages boot-storage drivers for Windows Setup, and injects eligible packages into the selected `install.wim` image. Extension-class packages and stale duplicates are excluded. Each remaining package is added separately, so one incompatible package does not stop the others. If a package fails, WinUtil discards the partial mount and retries the remaining packages against the original image. Check the live log for warnings: if every package fails, WinUtil keeps the original `install.wim` and still produces the ISO.
A live log shows progress as each step completes. This stage usually takes **10–30 minutes** depending on disk speed. The WIM dismount near the end is the slowest part, so do not close WinUtil while it is running.
