Fix two issues that caused failures when copying linked servers to SQL Server 2022+: 1. Fix operator precedence bug in provider existence check where `!$array -contains $value` always evaluated to false, meaning missing providers were never caught early. 2. Add automatic provider compatibility mapping for SQL Server version migrations. SQL Server 2022+ uses MSOLEDBSQL19 (OLE DB Driver 19) while older versions use MSOLEDBSQL (OLE DB Driver 18). When the source provider is not available on the destination, the function now automatically substitutes a known compatible alternative if one is available. Fixes #10336 (do Copy-DbaLinkedServer) Co-authored-by: Andreas Jordan <andreasjordan@users.noreply.github.com>
