Find the member a hand-written documentation id was aiming at

Typing "M:System.Linq.Enumerable.Where" at a command line is a reasonable thing
to do, and it found nothing: resolution compares the whole id string, so a form
without the parameter list only ever matched a member that genuinely takes none.
Spelling the signature out is no answer, because it means knowing the overload
count before asking. The same goes for a generic arity - and the exact spelling,
Dictionary`2, does not even survive an unquoted bash prompt, where a backtick
starts command substitution.

None of that makes the short form legal. Measured against Roslyn: its own
DocumentationCommentId resolver accepts no abbreviation at all, and the compiler
never emits one - a cref is a different grammar, which the compiler binds and
rewrites into a full id, warning CS0419 and picking one member when the cref is
ambiguous. A prefixed cref is copied through unvalidated, so an id in a
documentation file can be anything a human typed.

So the id grammar stays exact and IdStringProvider stays with it, which is what
lets cref-following trust its answer. The tolerance belongs to the callers that
serve people typing, and lives in DocumentationIdSearch as a ladder that loosens
one thing at a time: the exact id, then the id without its parameter list, then
without generic arities. Stating a detail wrongly still finds nothing; only
leaving one out asks for any. A rung may match several members and all of them
are returned, because which to present is the caller's decision and hiding the
rest would hide that the id was ambiguous.

ilspycmd shows every member of the group, headed by a comment naming the
ambiguity, and accepts the shapes people actually type: no prefix, a shortened
namespace, and arity written the cref or C# way.

ilspycmd: add --member for single-member decompilation

Decompiling one method or property previously required decompiling its
whole type and searching the output, which is wasteful for scripted and
agent-driven use against large assemblies. The new -m|--member option
accepts an XML documentation id string (the syntax of compiler-generated
documentation files and of the UI's --navigateto option) or a metadata
token in 0x06000005 form, resolves it against the main module (with a
bounds check for tokens and distinct error messages for malformed ids,
unknown members, and members of other modules), and prints just that
member through the engine's single-member decompilation path.

The tests seed a new ICSharpCode.ILSpyCmd.Tests project (part of the
XPlat and Desktop solution filters and of the per-project CI test
steps), driving the real Main in-process via InternalsVisibleTo, so
future ilspycmd features have a dedicated home for CLI tests.
