Adds a new article, "Replace an existing installer-based app with MSIX," under Manage your MSIX deployment. It explains that the MSIX version installs side by side with an existing unpackaged .exe/.msi/ClickOnce app (separate package identity, no in-place upgrade), documents the two recommended ways to remove the previous version (app-driven uninstall and management-tool uninstall), and points to the deployment-technology options. Wires the article into toc.yml and links it from the deployment overview and Know your installer pages. Resolves AB#25952048 Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

Addresses a partner (Lenovo/AppConsult) request for guidance on the best way to replace an existing .exe/.msi/ClickOnce install with the MSIX version across deployment technologies. The article explains that MSIX installs side by side with the unpackaged app (separate package identity, no in-place upgrade), documents the two recommended ways to remove the previous version (app-driven uninstall and management-tool uninstall), and points to the deployment-technology options.
