cproudlock 3ea20b271e Shopfloor unattend: fix tower (no-WiFi) hang on internet wait ...

FlatUnattendW10-shopfloor.xml Orders 4 and 5 hung forever on
desktops/towers with no WiFi NIC. Two underlying bugs:

1. Order 4 used Test-Connection (ICMP) against login.microsoftonline.us.
   Microsoft 365 endpoints do not reliably respond to ICMP, so even
   with working TCP 443 internet the ping loop ran forever. Symptom
   on a user-facing machine was the PowerShell window permanently
   stuck on "Waiting for internet connectivity...".
2. Order 5 unconditionally disabled all wired adapters and waited for
   WiFi internet. On a tower with no WiFi NIC this left the machine
   completely offline, and the following while loop waited for a WiFi
   connection that could never happen.

Fixes:
- Order 4 now emits a 60s interactive prompt asking the user to
  connect to the production network (so towers have a window to
  unplug PXE and plug into a production port), then uses
  Test-NetConnection -Port 443 with a 10 min hard timeout so the
  loop always exits.
- Order 5 checks for a physical WiFi adapter first; if none exists
  (tower case), it logs "No WiFi adapter - staying on ethernet" and
  returns immediately instead of disabling wired. If WiFi is present
  and migration times out, wired adapters are re-enabled as a
  fallback so the machine is never left offline.

Both orders now use Test-NetConnection -Port 443 instead of
Test-Connection (ICMP) so ICMP-blocking firewalls and non-responsive
cloud endpoints no longer produce infinite waits.
