Fixes #3531
Proposed changes
Update ListView.CheckBoxes setter to call RecreateHandleInternal() when toggling from true → false as well as false → true.
Ensure LVM_SETIMAGELIST is resent after handle recreation so the user‑supplied StateImageList is preserved.
Prevent native ListView from discarding or corrupting the StateImageList when checkboxes are toggled.
Customer Impact
Fixes scenarios where toggling CheckBoxes caused custom state images to disappear or the ImageList to be disposed.
Ensures developers can reliably use StateImageList with checkboxes without losing images.
Improves stability in apps that dynamically toggle CheckBoxes at runtime.
Regression?

Before
ListView_CheckBoxes_false_without_fix.mp4
ListView_CheckBoxes_true_without_fix.mp4
After
ListView_CheckBoxes_false_with_fix.mp4
ListView_CheckBoxes_true_with_fix.mp4
Test methodology
Manually toggled CheckBoxes across multiple views (List, SmallIcon, LargeIcon) with custom state images.
Verified items with StateImageIndex retained correct images after toggling.
Validated under high DPI scaling to confirm images remained intact.
Repeated toggle operations to confirm stability across multiple transitions.
