Enabling the msWebView2BrowserHitTransparent feature causes the browser to freeze when dragging and dropping a link.

Repro steps

  1. Create a sample application or open a demo app
  2. Add feature flag --enable-features=msWebView2BrowserHitTransparent
  3. Run and load any page that includes a link

Now that AllowHostInputProcessing is stable in pre-release, and is impacted by this issue, can this be looked at again? @tochukwuIbeEkeocha

I have a 100% repro of this issue by simply enabling AllowHostInputProcessing in the latest stable build
