FindName() does not work in WinUI3

[HO-COOH]

Describe the bug

FindName() does not work in WinUI3, while the exact same code works in UWP.

Steps to reproduce the bug

1. Create a new C++WinUI3 packaged project
2. Use this xaml

    <StackPanel x:Name="Root" Orientation="Vertical" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" Spacing="5">
        <Button x:Name="myButton" Click="myButton_Click">Click to load</Button>
        <Rectangle x:Name="DelayLoadRect" Fill="Green" Width="100" Height="50" x:Load="False" Loaded="Rectangle_Loaded"/>
    </StackPanel>

3. Use this code

    void MainWindow::myButton_Click(IInspectable const&, RoutedEventArgs const&)
    {
        static bool IsLoaded = false;
        if (IsLoaded)
        {
            winrt::Microsoft::UI::Xaml::Markup::XamlMarkupHelper::UnloadObject(DelayLoadRect());
            myButton().Content(box_value(L"Click to load"));
        }
        else
        {
            myButton().Content(box_value(L"Click to unload"));
            auto delayLoadRect = Root().FindName(L"DelayLoadRect");
        }
        IsLoaded = !IsLoaded;
    }

    void MainWindow::Rectangle_Loaded(winrt::Windows::Foundation::IInspectable const& sender, winrt::Microsoft::UI::Xaml::RoutedEventArgs const& e)
    {
        winrt::Microsoft::UI::Xaml::Controls::ContentDialog dialog;
        dialog.XamlRoot(Content().XamlRoot());
        dialog.Title(winrt::box_value(L"Loaded"));
        dialog.PrimaryButtonText(L"OK");
        dialog.ShowAsync();
    }

4. Build and run, the green rect is not loaded. The dialog is not shown.

Try it on a page instead.

Try it on a page instead.

Moving it to a Page does work, but I think the fact that it does not work under Window needs to be documented.
