Copilot summary

This pull request introduces several changes to improve code readability, simplify logic, and refactor the handling of HostsFileEntry objects in the HostsFileEditor module. Key updates include removing redundant methods, consolidating logic for creating host file entries, and improving logging and error handling.

Refactoring and Simplification:

• Removed the CreateEntryLine method from HostsFileEditor.cs and integrated its logic directly into the HostsFileEntry constructor, simplifying the creation of host file entries. [1] [2]
• Updated the HostsFileEntry constructor to generate the Line property internally, ensuring consistency and eliminating the need for external line creation.
• Replaced explicit object initialization with tuple-based initialization for HostsFileEntry objects across various methods, reducing verbosity. [1] [2] [3]

Enhanced Logging:

• Improved logging by using interpolated strings ($"{expression}") instead of concatenation for better readability and performance. [1] [2] [3]
• Added detailed debug logs to track operations like enabling, disabling, editing, and deleting entries, improving traceability. [1] [2] [3]

Error Handling and UI Improvements:

• Refactored the ShowErrorMessageAsync method to handle error messages centrally, improving modularity and reusability.
• Enhanced error message display logic to provide clearer feedback to users when operations fail. [1] [2]

Code Style and Formatting:

• Simplified lambda expressions and reformatted code to adhere to consistent styling practices, improving readability. [1] [2]
• Adjusted command definitions to align with the project's coding standards. [1] [2]

These changes collectively enhance the maintainability and functionality of the HostsFileEditor module while ensuring a cleaner and more efficient codebase.
