iOS 13+ allows users to dismiss FormSheet/PageSheet modals by swiping down, but MAUI had no mechanism for developers to intercept or cancel these dismissals. This adds the necessary wiring to UIAdaptivePresentationControllerDelegate methods.

Changes

  • New API: Page.ModalDismissAttempted event with ModalDismissAttemptedEventArgs containing a Cancel property
  • iOS implementation: Implemented presentationControllerShouldDismiss: in ControlsModalWrapper to raise the event and respect the cancellation
  • Test coverage: Added Issue6995 test demonstrating event usage with FormSheet modal

Usage

var modalPage = new ContentPage();

modalPage.On<iOS>()
    .SetModalPresentationStyle(UIModalPresentationStyle.FormSheet);

modalPage.ModalDismissAttempted += (sender, args) =>
{
    if (hasUnsavedChanges)
        args.Cancel = true;  // Prevents dismissal
};

await Navigation.PushModalAsync(modalPage);

The event fires when the user swipes down or taps outside the modal. Setting Cancel = true prevents iOS from dismissing the modal. Works on iOS/MacCatalyst 13+; event exists but is not triggered on other platforms.

App crashes because of changing a shared Drawable on the fly. I found
out it is the SearchBar. It only happens on Android and in large apps
with lots of screens. Unfortunately I can't reproduce it in the
TestSuite. But by reading the docs of Android this crash is common and
caused by changing a Drawable which is still referenced. With a custom
SearchBarHandler the issues is resolved.

### Description of Change

- Changes tinting of Androids SearchBar to unified setTint instead of
setColorFilter
-  Mutates the drawable before setting the tint.

Issue is fixed with a custom handler for now.

## Description

Adds rule #2 to the Git Workflow section in copilot-instructions.md:

**When fixing CI or amending an existing PR, commit directly to the PR
branch.** Do not create a separate branch off a PR branch — the PR
branch already IS a feature branch. Creating a new branch means CI will
not run on the PR, defeating the purpose.

Also adds a code example showing the correct workflow (`gh pr checkout`
→ commit → push).

## Motivation

Copilot CLI was incorrectly creating separate branches when asked to fix
CI on existing PRs, because rule #1 ("never commit to main, create a
feature branch") was being over-generalized to PR branches. This caused
wasted time since CI only runs on PR branches.
