Issue:
Use dedicated ACR for Test User-Defined Bicep Types
We currently are re-using the biceptypes.azurecr.io registry for test user-defined types used in functional tests. The approach to fix this was discussed with the team and the following steps were outlined: 

1. Create a new registry testuserdefinedbiceptypes.azurecr.io so all engineers have access to it and can move test udt bicep types to the new registry and update workflows accordingly.
2. Update validatebicep.yaml to pull index.json from npx registry for udts & create temp directory where test uct bicep types are pushed. This will help `validate bicep` step run successfully in PRs without requiring manual push to the new acr.
