Pull Request Overview
This PR backports a build configuration fix from the main branch (#26290) to release/v7.6. The fix ensures that ready-to-run compilation is only enabled for Release builds, preventing Debug builds from being unusable for debugging purposes.
Key Changes:
- Split PropertyGroup conditions to separate AppDeployment and Configuration checks
- Add explicit Configuration=='Release' conditions for PublishReadyToRun settings
- Affects both FxDependentDeployment and SelfContained build configurations

Impact
REQUIRED: Choose either Tooling Impact or Customer Impact (or both). At least one checkbox must be selected.
Tooling Impact
Fixes Start-PSBuild to correctly handle ready-to-run compilation based on configuration. Previously Debug builds incorrectly enabled ready-to-run, making debugging impossible. This fix ensures developers can properly debug PowerShell on release/v7.6 branch.
Customer Impact
Regression
REQUIRED: Check exactly one box.
This is not a regression.
Testing
Original PR verified that Start-PSBuild correctly enables ready-to-run only for Release configuration. Backport tested by:
Risk
REQUIRED: Check exactly one box.
Medium risk: Changes build configuration properties that affect all deployments (FxDependentDeployment and SelfContained). The change is well-scoped to only add Configuration conditions, preserving existing behavior for Release builds while fixing Debug builds. Has been validated in master branch.
