fix: Content-Language header on offer creation; double photo thumbnails; sync Windows diverged files

- Add Content-Language: en-US to CreateOfferAsync (eBay Inventory API requires it)
- Double thumbnail sizes in NewListingView (96→192, 100→200)
- Sync NewListingView.xaml/.cs from Windows (replaces SingleItemView)
- Sync latest AiAssistantService, SavedListingsService, MainWindow, SavedListingsView from Windows
