distribute conhost fixes with Windows 10
Windows Terminal version
conhost of Windows 10
Windows build number
Windows 10
Other Software
No response
Steps to reproduce
Run a terminal application (not Windows Terminal), let's say Git bash from Git-for-Windows. Run a Windows shell (like wsl.exe, cmd or powershell). Output (cat or type) a text file with ANSI escape sequences for bold, reverse, and both.
Expected Behavior
Proper rendering of character attributes, also in combination with colour attributes, true colour etc.
Actual Behavior
Attribute rendering is broken because escape sequences are mangled. Bold is forced to render white.

Note
This bug was fixed in conhost for Windows 11. A fixed conhost.exe should also be updated for Windows 10.
