Failing to build HelloWinUICppWinRT #532

Description

Just starting to evaluate the C++/WinRT. I created the HelloWinUICppWinRT as described here. I installed the "C++ (v142) Universal Windows Platfrom tools", "C++/WinRT Visual Studio Extension (VSIX)" and the corresponding NuGet package. But the blank new project doesn't compile/link with following error messages:

1>main.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _WINRT_IMPL_SetErrorInfo@8 referenced in function "private: static int __stdcall winrt::hresult_error::fallback_RoOriginateLanguageException(int,void *,void *)" (?fallback_RoOriginateLanguageException@hresult_error@winrt@@CGHHPAX0@Z) 1>main.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _WINRT_IMPL_GetErrorInfo@8 referenced in function "public: __thiscall winrt::hresult_error::hresult_error(struct winrt::hresult,struct winrt::take_ownership_from_abi_t)" (??0hresult_error@winrt@@QAE@Uhresult@1@Utake_ownership_from_abi_t@1@@Z)

I'm on Visual Studio 2019, Windows 10 1809.

It seems that at least for the console application it is enough to add "ole32.lib;oleaut32.lib" as per #520. But for XAML app I'm still getting:

``
