MAUI Entry in Windows always shows ClearButton despite ClearButtonVisibility set to 'Never'

[DDHSchmidt]

Description

While testing out the fix for issue #25038 in our MAUI application I noticed that version 8.0.92 does not solve our issues with the Clear button on Windows, despite the assurances in the linked issue.

I was able to come up with a simple reproduction project, that still displays the Clear button within the Entry control on Windows, despite setting ClearButtonVisibility to "Never".

Steps to Reproduce

1. Start up reproduction project on Windows
2. Start typing in the Entry control
3. The "X" button will show up

Version with bug

8.0.92 SR9.2

Is this a regression from previous behavior?

Not sure, did not test other versions

Last version that worked well

Unknown/Other

Affected platforms

No response

Did you find any workaround?

The previous fix seems to be dependant on the Entry control's surroundings.
Embedding it in other layouts might help but is not possible, due to different requirements.

Perhaps @NirmalKumarYuvaraj could take a look because of the work in #25006.
