This PR fixes a translation error in the German localization of Microsoft Docs where "English" was being incorrectly translated to "Deutsch" (German) instead of "Englisch" (English) in the supported languages tables.
Problem
The issue was reported on the German version of the Microsoft Store app package requirements documentation at:
https://learn.microsoft.com/de-de/windows/apps/publish/publish-your-app/msix/app-package-requirements#supported-languages
In the supported languages table, the English language entry was displaying:
But should display:
This is incorrect because "Deutsch" means "German" in German, while "Englisch" means "English" in German.
Solution
Added HTML localization comments before all "English" language entries in the supported languages tables to provide explicit context for Microsoft's translation system:
<!-- In German localization, "English" should be translated as "Englisch" (the English language), not "Deutsch" (the German language) --> | English | en, en-au, en-ca, ... |
This approach provides clear guidance to the automated translation system to ensure proper translation while maintaining the existing table structure and formatting.

All files containing identical supported languages tables were updated for consistency to prevent the same translation error across different documentation pages.
Fixes #5201.
