Always run WriteItemsFromFile locally, as these operations just read/write items
from/to an XML file, this is something we don't need to run remotely when building
from Windows. This improves the build performance and also fixes some inconsistencies
we had were sometimes files were written locally and read remotely (or the other
way around).

This means we need to adjust any corresponding ReadItemsFromFile calls accordingly.

It also allows us to remove the remoting support in WriteItemsFromFile, but we
can't remove remoting support for ReadItemsFromFile, because sometimes we have
to read files that aren't written with WriteItemsFromFile (they're written by
other tasks), and these files will have been written remotely.
