Logging of script block execution cannot be enabled on Unix #5695
Description
PowerShell checks whether to log script block activities in ShouldLogScriptBlockActivity, which query Registry on windows to get the configuration via GetGroupPolicySetting. However, GetGroupPolicySetting does nothing on Unix, and thus script block activity logging cannot be enabled on Unix.
A potential fix is to make PowerShell checks against an entry in pwsh.runtimeconfig.json.

Reopened since the change causes all analytic events to be logged unconditionally on Linux.
