Pull request overview

This PR reverts a prior partial revert affecting COM licensing activation, and refactors the CoreCLR↔managed licensing glue to use the [UnmanagedCallersOnly] calling pattern and BSTR marshalling while also fixing a native test ownership bug.

Changes:

• Fix BSTR ownership in the COM native test server (LicenseTesting now copies the incoming license BSTR before freeing).
• Switch COM licensing activation in runtimecallablewrapper.cpp from MethodDescCallSite/manual ARG_SLOT plumbing to UnmanagedCallersOnlyCaller, updating the managed LicenseInteropProxy entrypoints accordingly.
• Introduce a simplified BSTRHolder RAII type in holder.h and remove the older utilcode.h typedef; remove some metasig entries and unused signatures.

src/tests/Interop/COM/NativeServer/LicenseTesting.h:35

• The constructor now allocates a new BSTR before checking s_DenyLicense, but if s_DenyLicense is true the constructor throws and the destructor won’t run, leaking the newly allocated _lic. Consider performing the deny check before allocating, or using a temporary holder/RAII (allocate into a local, then assign to _lic only after the throw path is ruled out).

 LicenseTesting(_In_opt_ BSTR lic)
: _lic{ TP_SysAllocString(lic) }
{
if (s_DenyLicense)
throw CLASS_E_NOTLICENSED;
}
