## What is the current behavior?
<!-- Please describe the current behavior that you are modifying, or link to a relevant issue. -->
Quoting from https://github.com/windows-toolkit/WindowsCommunityToolkit/issues/3422#issuecomment-774484219, we have the current situation with respect to extension methods in the Toolkit:
> On a related note - lately I've been thinking a bit about the various extensions in the toolkit in particular.
@mrlacey already pointed this out in the first post in this issue, and I agree that that inconsistency is a bit weird, especially now that newer packages have started to just place them in their respective root namespaces. Basically we have the following situation:
>
> - `Microsoft.Toolkit.Extensions` (from `Microsoft.Toolkit`)❌
> - `Microsoft.Toolkit.Extensions` (from `Microsoft.Toolkit.Diagnostics`*) ❌
> - `Microsoft.Toolkit.HighPerformance.Extensions` ❌
> - `Microsoft.Toolkit.Mvvm.Messaging` ✅
> - `Microsoft.Toolkit.Uwp.Extensions` ❌
> - `Microsoft.Toolkit.Uwp.UI.Extensions` ❌
> - `Microsoft.Toolkit.Uwp.UI.Animations` ✅
> - `Microsoft.Toolkit.Uwp.UI.Media`** ✅
## What is the new behavior?
<!-- Describe how was this issue resolved or changed? -->
This PR moves all the extensions (including XAML markup extensions) to the root namespace of each package.
It also fixes some related issues like inconsistent naming, incorrect method locations, etc.
## Open questions
Some extension types now have a number of properties that are only relevant when grouped together, as they refer a specific feature. For instance, all the SurfaceDial properties in `TextBoxExtensions`, or the ones related to Regex. @michael-hawker mentioned the "option" pattern that the Graph Controls have been using, which would look something like this:
```xml
<TextBox>
<ui:TextBoxExtentions.SurfaceDial>
<ui:SurfaceDialOptions MinValue="0" MaxValue="10" EnableHapticFeedback="True" ... />
</ui:TextBoxExtensions.SurfaceDial>
</TextBox>
```
Do we want to make this change as well while we're at it? Thoughts? 🙂
## Additional details
Haven't fully tested all the samples in the sample app just yet, have just focused on ensuring everything built fine for now.
Also, this PR is based on top of #3685, which needs to be merged before this one.
