Remove unsupported artifact upload

- LinuxViewRenderer: Remove redundant child rendering that caused "View already has a parent" errors
- SkiaLabel: Consider LineBreakMode.WordWrap for multi-line measurement and rendering
- SkiaScrollView: Update ContentSize in OnDraw with properly constrained measurement
- SkiaShell: Account for padding in MeasureOverride (consistent with ArrangeOverride)
- Version bump to 1.0.0-preview.4

+# Frequently Asked Questions
+
+## Visual Studio Integration
+
+### How do I add Linux support to my existing MAUI project?
+
+Unlike Android, iOS, and Windows which appear in Visual Studio's platform dropdown, Linux requires manual configuration since it's a community platform.
+
+**Step 1: Add the NuGet Package**
+
+```bash
+dotnet add package OpenMaui.Controls.Linux --prerelease
+```
+
+Or in Visual Studio: Right-click project → Manage NuGet Packages → Search "OpenMaui.Controls.Linux"
+
+**Step 2: Create a Linux Startup Project**
+
+Create a new folder called `Platforms/Linux` in your project and add a `Program.cs`:
+
+```csharp
+using OpenMaui.Platform.Linux;
+
+namespace MyApp.Platforms.Linux;
+
+public class Program
+{
+    public static void Main(string[] args)
+    {
+        var app = new LinuxApplication();
+        app.MainPage = new MainPage(); // Your existing MainPage
+        app.Run();
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**Step 3: Add a Linux Build Configuration**
+
+Add to your `.csproj`:
+
+```xml
+<PropertyGroup Condition="'$(Configuration)|$(TargetFramework)'=='Debug|net9.0'">
+  <RuntimeIdentifier>linux-x64</RuntimeIdentifier>
+</PropertyGroup>
+```
+
+Or create a separate `MyApp.Linux.csproj` that references your shared code.
+
+---
+
+### Why doesn't Linux appear in Visual Studio's platform dropdown?
+
+Visual Studio's MAUI tooling only shows platforms officially supported by Microsoft (.NET MAUI team). Linux is a community-supported platform through OpenMaui.
+
+**Workarounds:**
+
+1. **Use a separate Linux project** - Create a dedicated `MyApp.Linux` console project
+2. **Use VS Code** - Better cross-platform support with command-line builds
+3. **Use JetBrains Rider** - Excellent Linux and cross-platform support
+4. **Command line** - `dotnet build -r linux-x64` works from any IDE
+
+---
+
+### How do I build for Linux from Visual Studio on Windows?
+
+**Option A: Command Line (Recommended)**
+
+Open Terminal in VS and run:
+```bash
+dotnet build -c Release -r linux-x64
+dotnet publish -c Release -r linux-x64 --self-contained
+```
+
+**Option B: Custom Build Profile**
+
+1. Right-click solution → Properties → Configuration Manager
+2. Create a new configuration called "Linux"
+3. Edit project properties to set RuntimeIdentifier for this configuration
+
+**Option C: WSL Integration**
+
+If you have WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) installed:
+```bash
+wsl dotnet build
+wsl dotnet run
+```
+
+---
+
+### How do I debug Linux apps from Windows?
+
+**Option 1: Remote Debugging**
+
+1. Install `vsdbg` on your Linux machine
+2. Configure remote debugging in VS/VS Code
+3. Attach to the running process
+
+**Option 2: WSL (Recommended for development)**
+
+1. Install WSL 2 with Ubuntu
+2. Install .NET SDK in WSL
+3. Run your app in WSL with X11 forwarding:
+   ```bash
+   export DISPLAY=:0
+   dotnet run
+   ```
+4. Use WSLg (Windows 11) for native GUI support
+
+**Option 3: Virtual Machine**
+
+1. Set up a Linux VM (VMware, VirtualBox, Hyper-V)
+2. Share your project folder
+3. Build and run inside the VM
+
+---
+
+## Project Structure
+
+### What's the recommended project structure for cross-platform MAUI with Linux?
+
+```
+MyApp/
+├── MyApp.sln
+├── MyApp/                      # Shared MAUI project
+│   ├── MyApp.csproj
+│   ├── App.xaml
+│   ├── MainPage.xaml
+│   ├── Platforms/
+│   │   ├── Android/
+│   │   ├── iOS/
+│   │   ├── Windows/
+│   │   └── Linux/              # Add this folder
+│   │       └── Program.cs
+│   └── ...
+└── MyApp.Linux/                # Optional: Separate Linux project
+    ├── MyApp.Linux.csproj
+    └── Program.cs
+```
+
+### Should I use a separate project or add Linux to my existing project?
+
+**Add to existing project** if:
+- You want a single codebase
+- Your MAUI code is mostly XAML-based
+- You're comfortable with conditional compilation
+
+**Use a separate project** if:
+- You want cleaner separation
+- You need Linux-specific features
+- You want independent build/deploy cycles
+- Your team includes Linux specialists
+
+---
+
+## Build & Deploy
+
+### How do I create a Linux executable?
+
+```bash
+# Self-contained (includes .NET runtime)
+dotnet publish -c Release -r linux-x64 --self-contained -o ./publish
+
+# Framework-dependent (smaller, requires .NET on target)
+dotnet publish -c Release -r linux-x64 --no-self-contained -o ./publish
+```
+
+For ARM64 (Raspberry Pi, etc.):
+```bash
+dotnet publish -c Release -r linux-arm64 --self-contained -o ./publish
+```
+
+### How do I create a .deb or .rpm package?
+
+We recommend using packaging tools:
+
+**For .deb (Debian/Ubuntu):**
+```bash
+dotnet tool install -g dotnet-deb
+dotnet deb -c Release -r linux-x64
+```
+
+**For .rpm (Fedora/RHEL):**
+```bash
+dotnet tool install -g dotnet-rpm
+dotnet rpm -c Release -r linux-x64
+```
+
+**For AppImage (Universal):**
+Use [AppImageKit](https://appimage.org/) with your published output.
+
+**For Flatpak:**
+Create a flatpak manifest and build with `flatpak-builder`.
+
+---
+
+## Common Issues
+
+### "SkiaSharp native library not found"
+
+Install the required native libraries:
+
+**Ubuntu/Debian:**
+```bash
+sudo apt-get install libfontconfig1 libfreetype6
+```
+
+**Fedora:**
+```bash
+sudo dnf install fontconfig freetype
+```
+
+### "Cannot open display" or "No display server"
+
+Ensure X11 or Wayland is running:
+```bash
+echo $DISPLAY        # Should show :0 or similar
+echo $WAYLAND_DISPLAY # For Wayland
+```
+
+For headless/SSH sessions:
+```bash
+export DISPLAY=:0    # If X11 is running
+```
+
+### "libX11.so not found"
+
+Install X11 development libraries:
+
+**Ubuntu/Debian:**
+```bash
+sudo apt-get install libx11-6 libx11-dev
+```
+
+### App runs but window doesn't appear
+
+Check if you're running under Wayland without XWayland:
+```bash
+# Force X11 mode
+export GDK_BACKEND=x11
+./MyApp
+```
+
+---
+
+## IDE Recommendations
+
+### What's the best IDE for developing MAUI apps with Linux support?
+
+| IDE | Linux Dev | Windows Dev | Pros | Cons |
+|-----|-----------|-------------|------|------|
+| **VS Code** | ⭐⭐⭐ | ⭐⭐⭐ | Cross-platform, lightweight, great C# extension | No visual XAML designer |
+| **JetBrains Rider** | ⭐⭐⭐ | ⭐⭐⭐ | Excellent cross-platform, powerful refactoring | Paid license |
+| **Visual Studio** | ⭐ | ⭐⭐⭐ | Best MAUI tooling on Windows | No native Linux support |
+| **Visual Studio Mac** | ⭐⭐ | N/A | Good MAUI support | macOS only |
+
+**Our recommendation:**
+- **Windows developers:** Visual Studio for Android/iOS/Windows, VS Code or command line for Linux builds
+- **Linux developers:** JetBrains Rider or VS Code
+- **Cross-platform teams:** VS Code with standardized build scripts
+
+---
+
+## Continuous Integration
+
+### How do I set up CI/CD for Linux builds?
+
+**GitHub Actions example:**
+
+```yaml
+jobs:
+  build-linux:
+    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
+    steps:
+    - uses: actions/checkout@v4
+    - uses: actions/setup-dotnet@v4
+      with:
+        dotnet-version: '9.0.x'
+
+    - name: Install dependencies
+      run: |
+        sudo apt-get update
+        sudo apt-get install -y libx11-dev libfontconfig1-dev
+
+    - name: Build
+      run: dotnet build -c Release
+
+    - name: Publish
+      run: dotnet publish -c Release -r linux-x64 --self-contained -o ./publish
+
+    - name: Upload artifact
+      uses: actions/upload-artifact@v4
+      with:
+        name: linux-app
+        path: ./publish
+```
