Allow users to quickly preview resource files (.resx and .resw) in Peek and Explorer PreviewPane. Both are xml files and can be easy previewed in Monaco editor.

As plain text, xml code or as resource (string) table?

IMO good idea. We already do the formatting in the reg previewer

As xml in Monaco should be fine.
