Subject: [PATCH] Add Directory.Build.props for centralized .NET 11 version
 management

Centralizes MAUI and .NET package versions for all 11.0 samples:
- MauiVersion: 11.0.0-preview.3.26203.7
- DotNetVersion: 11.0.0-preview.3.26207.106
- ValidateXcodeVersion: false (needed for preview SDK)

Projects should reference $(MauiVersion) and $(DotNetVersion) instead
of hardcoding versions in individual .csproj files.
