Web API templates updates (#49501)

- Rename new API template files/directories to match template name "WebApiAot"
- Re-order options for Web API template so that "Use controllers" shows up last in VS
- Adjust logic of Web API template options in VS so that persistence of "Use controllers" options works correctly across versions
- Update Web API template strings for new options and changes
- Added baseline test scenarios for Web API template to cover extra scenarios
