Updated .NET MAUI Blazor App project template name for .NET 8

[danroth27]

In .NET 8 we're updating the .NET MAUI Blazor App project template name to ".NET MAUI Blazor Hybrid App" to make the association with Blazor Hybrid clearer: dotnet/maui#13804. We'll need to update corresponding docs and screenshots.

@danroth27 ... If the text merely refers to the project, I think I can just change the text to say ".NET MAUI Blazor Hybrid App" without versioning, as it isn't referring to the template explicitly and these always were that type of app ... it's only a naming change.

I think only the spots that refer specifically to the project template (and screenshots) will need to be versioned for the change.

Let me know if these are incorrect interpretations.

Note that I'm going to need to get the preview here before I can take the screenshots. I've already started working on this, and I'll complete it when I have all the bits on the PR.

Sure, that sounds find.

@danroth27 ... It's not normal that I should need to run ...

dotnet new install Microsoft.Maui.Templates

... to get the templates, correct? ... is that just a point-in-time problem?

Note that I do have the correct workload installed.

Also, I don't see the name change yet ...

I have Preview 3 on the machine now. Perhaps I need to pass the preview switch to the CLI command. I'll try that next.

[guardrex]

Mmmmmm ... --prerelease switch isn't an option. I'll need the package version.

This issue was closed ...

... in favor of this one ...

dotnet/maui#14001

... where ...

dotnet workload install maui

... is suggested. Trying that now.

@danroth27 ...

🎉 Success!

That workload install did the trick ... I'm good. I'll proceed with the screenshot updates now.

@danroth27 ... I have the Windows side done, but no 🎲🎲 on the Mac side. I have VS4Mac Preview installed with the Preview 3 SDK, which I can see in the VS4Mac preferences under the .NET SDK location. I also performed a system reboot. I don't see the updated template name.

UPDATE (4/12): I'll try that workload install (re-install) trick that worked on Win on the Mac to see if that works.

UPDATE (4/12): Didn't work. I can't get the Pre3 templates on the Mac at this time.

UPDATE (4/12): The Windows updates are done and merged. There are some things that the PU is working out for the template to surface on VS4Mac. I'll circle back around to this to institute the Mac updates later.

UPDATE (6/21): Checked VS4Mac (stable and preview) again ... no 🎲🎲 yet. I'll continue to monitor releases.

We can close this now, as VS4Mac is being mothballed.
