Hide binding plugins and disable Data Annotations validation by default (#20623)

* Make binding plugin API internal.

Making everything pluggable like has performance implications even if the plugins are never customized (which will be the 99% case).

`IPropertyAccessor` is used in `CompiledBindingPathBuilder` so needs to be kept public for the moment.

* Disable Data Annotations validation by default.

It [conflicts with `CommunityToolkit.Mvvm`](https://github.com/AvaloniaUI/Avalonia/issues/8397) which is now the default MVVM framework, so require it to be enabled in the `AppBuilder`.

* Update API supressions.

* Add back missing using
