Regression in 8.2: ColorPicker resets inital value #685

Describe the bug

This is very likely a regression from #579.

I use a ColorPickerButton in my app, and TwoWay x:Bind that to a property. The value of that property is not reflected in the ColorPicker that opens when the user clicks the ColorPickerButton, instead the x:Bind updates the property to transparent.

After I open the picker once and choose a color, it seems to work properly on subsequent opens — only the first one is affected.

Steps to reproduce

In a blank WinUI/WinAppSDK 1.7 project, add a Frame and an empty page.

Modify the page to this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Page
    x:Class="App9.Main"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
    xmlns:local="using:App9"
    xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
    xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
    xmlns:controls="using:CommunityToolkit.WinUI.Controls"
    mc:Ignorable="d"
    Background="{ThemeResource ApplicationPageBackgroundThemeBrush}">

    <Grid>
        <controls:ColorPickerButton SelectedColor="{x:Bind MySelectedColor, Mode=TwoWay}" />
    </Grid>
</Page>

Code behind:

public sealed partial class Main : Page, INotifyPropertyChanged
{
    private Color _mySelectedColor = Colors.Blue;

    public Color MySelectedColor
    {
        get => _mySelectedColor;
        set
        {
            if (_mySelectedColor != value)
            {
                _mySelectedColor = value;
                PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(nameof(MySelectedColor)));
            }
        }
    }

    public Main()
    {
        this.InitializeComponent();
    }

    public event PropertyChangedEventHandler? PropertyChanged;
}

Expected behavior

I expect clicking the ColorPickerButton not to modify the value of the bound property. If the user dismisses the ColorPicker, then the value of the property should still be the same as if nothing happened.

Setting the value to transparent, makes just clicking the ColorPickerButton a 'destructive' operation.
