Subject: [PATCH] Forces capture media creation when installing apps

Removes the check for a pre-existing capture ISO when applications are being installed.

This change simplifies the logic by unconditionally creating the capture media if `InstallApps` is enabled. This ensures the media is always correctly configured for capturing the virtual machine to an FFU.
