Dock 12.1.0.6 removed the public JsonConverterFactoryList/JsonConverterList<T>
converters from Dock.Serializer.SystemTextJson that ILSpyDockJson used to
deserialize IList<T> into ObservableCollection<T>. Dock now does the same
substitution with an internal JsonTypeInfo modifier that swaps CreateObject
for IList<T> enumerables. ILSpyDockJson mirrors that technique in its own
modifier chain, which also removes the per-element JsonSerializer.Serialize
side effect the old converter had.
Also bumps Xaml.Behaviors.Avalonia, ProDataGrid, AwesomeAssertions, CliWrap,
NUnit3TestAdapter, and the decompiler minor version to 11.1.

ILSpy resolves an assembly's references against the target framework it
detects from the TargetFrameworkAttribute. When that attribute is missing,
wrong, or the user wants to force a different framework, there was no way to
hint the correct one, so references could resolve against the wrong runtime
pack or framework directory.
A LoadedAssembly can now carry a TargetFrameworkIdOverride that short-circuits
detection (it is the single value every LoadedAssembly-based resolution path
reads), is persisted in the assembly-list XML, and is carried across a reload
so a runtime change re-resolves against the new framework. The "Set Target
Framework" context-menu entry edits it through a dialog with a free-form text
box and an always-visible list of common monikers to pick from (the app forces
overlay popups, so a dropdown would be clamped inside the small dialog); input
is validated and converted from the short TFM users know (net48) to the long
FrameworkName form the resolver consumes (.NETFramework,Version=v4.8) via
NuGet. The direct DetectTargetFrameworkId callers in the decompiler core
(project export, language version) intentionally keep reading the real
attribute; only reference resolution is overridden.
Resurrects a 2020 prototype (branch tfmoverride) re-implemented against the
current ILSpyX/Avalonia code, whose surrounding structures no longer matched.

The Avalonia port had placed the UI app in an ILSpy.* namespace tree,
while the csproj RootNamespace and every prior release (through 10.1)
use ICSharpCode.ILSpy.*. Restoring the historical namespace reduces the
public API diff against release/10.1 for plugin authors and removes the
shadowing that forced global:: qualifiers in the test project. The
Images class and AccessOverlayIcon enum move back into the root
namespace (as in 10.1), since an ICSharpCode.ILSpy.Images namespace
would shadow the Images class for all code inside ICSharpCode.ILSpy.

Opening a package from a feed previously meant downloading the .nupkg by
hand and using File > Open (#2313). The new File menu command searches any
public V3 feed (editable package-source list, persisted as an MRU in the
ILSpy settings), offers the latest 100 versions in a dropdown, and downloads
into the NuGet global packages folder so the cache is shared with every
other NuGet consumer on the machine and nothing is fetched twice. The cached
.nupkg is then opened exactly like the regular Open command. Feed access
sits behind INuGetFeedClient so the headless test suite covers search,
paging, version selection, download, cancellation, and error surfacing
without touching the network.

The Microsoft.DiaSymReader / .PortablePdb packages pull NETStandard.Library
1.6.1, which drags in 4.3.0 builds of System.Net.Http, System.Private.Uri
and System.Text.RegularExpressions, all carrying known advisories (NU1902/
NU1903). They are framework-provided at runtime on net10.0; pin the patched
4.3.4 / 4.3.2 / 4.3.1 via central transitive pinning so NuGet audit passes.
Enabling transitive pinning also aligns a handful of other transitive
packages to their declared central versions.

The Pdb2Xml command (ILSpy) and the PDB round-trip tests (Decompiler.Tests)
reference Microsoft.DiaSymReader*, previously gated on the build host being
Windows. That made dotnet restore resolve a different graph on Windows than
on Linux -- the packages (and their transitive tail: DiaSymReader.PortablePdb,
the legacy NETCore.Platforms/Win32 packages) appear only on Windows, and
DiaSymReader.Native flips between Direct and CentralTransitive. So a checkout
could not be developed across OSes without the committed packages.lock.json
churning on every Windows restore.
Drop the OS gate (keep Debug-only) so the restored graph, and the committed
lock, are identical on every OS. The consuming code is still gated by DEBUG
and WINDOWS, so on non-Windows the packages are restored but never compiled
in; the native asset only resolves for win-* RIDs.
The "Verify package contents" step (which checks the committed *.filelist
snapshots still match the built VSIX/MSI contents) had been excluding
packages.lock.json from its git diff to tolerate that per-OS churn. With the
locks now identical across OSes the carve-out is unnecessary, so it goes back
to a plain git diff --exit-code.

Replace the Windows-only .bat helpers (clean / debugbuild / releasebuild /
restore / updatedeps and BuildTools/format) with cross-platform pwsh
scripts at the repo root: restore.ps1, build.ps1 (-Configuration), clean.ps1,
updatedeps.ps1 and BuildTools/format.ps1, alongside the existing publish.ps1.
Enable a packages.lock.json for every project by hoisting
RestorePackagesWithLockFile into the root Directory.Build.props (the four
core libraries set it individually before) and commit the generated locks,
so restores are repeatable and CI can cache packages off them.
Cache the NuGet packages folder in the three setup-dotnet workflows
(build-ilspy, build-frontends, codeql-analysis), keyed on the lock files
per the setup-dotnet caching guidance.
Scope the Debug "Verify package contents" check to the *.filelist outputs
it actually generates. A project's packages.lock.json is keyed only by
(framework, RID), with no host-OS axis, so a lock produced on Linux
legitimately differs from one produced on Windows whenever an OS-conditional
PackageReference applies (Debug+Windows pulls Microsoft.DiaSymReader*). The
Windows restore then rewrites those locks; that churn must not fail a step
whose job is to police the VSIX/MSI file lists.
Also drop the dead ILSpy.BamlDecompiler publish line from
publishlocaldev.ps1, mirroring the earlier publish.ps1 fix.

TestPlugin was still WPF (net10.0-windows, UseWpf, System.Windows,
TomsToolbox, the old ICSharpCode.ILSpy namespace), so it could not load
into the cross-platform app. Re-target it to net10.0 and map each
extension point onto the port's contracts: the custom Language, About-page
addition, context-menu entry, main-menu/toolbar command, and an Avalonia
options page whose view the ViewLocator resolves by naming convention. The
command needs [ImportingConstructor] for System.Composition to satisfy its
service dependency. Reference it build-only from the tests (no DLL copied
into the test output) so a composition test can load it without the
headless app auto-loading the plugin into every other test.

While support for multi-module assemblies isn't fully working yet; it is clear at this point that we want
to treat each module in a multi-module assembly separately for the purposes of the type system.
