Policy editors, such as gpedit.msc and gpme.msc, rely on both the presence and the value of the
registry value to determine whether a policy is enabled. Unless an enabledValue is specified
explicitly, it defaults to REG_DWORD 1.
Therefore, we cannot rely on the same registry value to track the policy configuration state when
it is already used by a policy option, such as a dropdown. Otherwise, while the policy setting
will be written and function correctly, it will appear as Not Configured in the policy editor
due to the value mismatch (for example, REG_SZ "always" vs REG_DWORD 1).
In this PR, we update the DNSRegistration policy setting to use the DNSRegistrationConfigured
registry value for tracking. This change has no effect on the client side and exists solely to
satisfy ADMX and policy editor requirements.

In this PR, we make DNS registration behavior configurable via the EnableDNSRegistration policy setting.
We keep the default behavior unchanged, but allow admins to either enforce DNS registration and dynamic
DNS updates for the Tailscale interface, or prevent Tailscale from modifying the settings configured in
the network adapter's properties or by other means.

In this PR, we update the LocalBackend so that when the ReconnectAfter policy setting is configured
and a user disconnects Tailscale by setting WantRunning to false in the profile prefs, the LocalBackend
will now start a timer to set WantRunning back to true once the ReconnectAfter timer expires.
We also update the ADMX/ADML policy definitions to allow configuring this policy setting for Windows
via Group Policy and Intune.

Something I accidentally added in #14217.
It doesn't seem to impact Intune or the Administrative Templates MMC extension,
but it should still be fixed.

We add a policy definition for the AllowedSuggestedExitNodes syspolicy setting, allowing admins
to configure a list of exit node IDs to be used as a pool for automatic suggested exit node selection.
We update definitions for policy settings configurable on both a per-user and per-machine basis,
such as UI customizations, to specify class="Both".
Lastly, we update the help text for existing policy definitions to include a link to the KB article
as the last line instead of in the first paragraph.
