Related dotnet#12055 `PropertyGrid.ResetHelpForeColor` (PropertyGrid.cs:3631) delegated to `_helpPane.ResetBackColor()` instead of `_helpPane.ResetForeColor()` — copy-paste typo from `ResetHelpBackColor`, present since the initial WinForms source import in 2018. The method is private with zero call sites, so the defect was never observable through any public API and went undetected. - PropertyGrid.cs:3631: `_helpPane.ResetBackColor()` → `_helpPane.ResetForeColor()`. - PropertyGridTests.cs: add `PropertyGrid_ResetHelpForeColor_Invoke_ResetsForeColorOnly` and `PropertyGrid_ResetHelpBackColor_Invoke_ResetsBackColorOnly`, invoking the private methods directly via `TestAccessor.Dynamic` so coverage and regression protection are independent of the `PropertyDescriptor.ResetValue` path. Contributes to dotnet#12055. None. The buggy method has no call sites; no shipped behavior changes. No. Minimal Unit tests. Two new tests in `PropertyGridTests.cs` directly invoke `ResetHelpForeColor` and `ResetHelpBackColor` via `TestAccessor.Dynamic` and assert that only the targeted color is reset while the sibling color is left untouched. 11.0.100-preview.5.26227.104
