* Migrate ILSpy.AddIn.VS2022 to SDK-style VSIX project
* Retire the legacy VS2017/2019 ILSpy add-in
* Build the VS extension via dotnet build on the slnx
* Inline ILSpy.AddIn.Shared into ILSpy.AddIn.VS2022
* Restore the VS add-in menus broken by the SDK-style migration
The macOS CI artifact is an unsigned zipped ILSpy.app; the signed
distribution channel is a dmg the release manager creates offline with
create-dmg.ps1 (codesign and notarization stay optional parameters, so
no signing secrets ever live in CI). Distribution via Homebrew uses a
tap repository holding only a cask file that points at the dmg attached
to the GitHub release; the cask template and per-release update steps
are documented next to the scripts.

With the move to Avalonia the app runs on Linux and macOS, so the
distribution tooling grows beyond Windows: publish.ps1 gains a
-Platform parameter (the default keeps the Windows behavior unchanged),
and new BuildTools scripts package the self-contained publish outputs
into a zip, deb, and rpm on Linux and a zipped ILSpy.app on macOS.
Nothing is signed at package time; signing happens offline on the
release manager machine. Info-ZIP zip is used instead of
Compress-Archive because the latter drops unix mode bits. deb/rpm are
built with dpkg-deb/rpmbuild directly (both preinstalled on GitHub
ubuntu runners) following sourcegit-scm/sourcegit's proven model,
including the libicu OR-chain in the deb control file and disabled
auto-requires for the self-contained rpm payload. Pre-release versions
map '-' to '~' so both package managers sort them before the release.
The macOS bundle's Info.plist now carries placeholders stamped at
package time; on Windows the spec/control/desktop files are kept LF via
.gitattributes because Linux tools consume them verbatim.

The blob was tracked 100644, so every fresh checkout (and any branch
switch in a worktree hosting the shared .git/hooks symlink target)
produces a non-executable hook script, which git then silently skips
with only an 'ignoredHook' hint. With core.fileMode=false on this
clone a plain chmod is git-invisible; the mode has to be fixed in the
index.

create-filelists.ps1 filtered to bin\Debug with `-contains` (collection
membership, always false for a substring test), so it skipped every artifact;
drop the broken filter. Point the installer ProductIcon at the relocated
ILSpy.ico (Images -> Assets) and regenerate the committed .filelist snapshots.

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.

Decompiler.Tests targeted net11.0-windows only because
Microsoft.DiaSymReader.Native is Win-only and Tester.cs hardcoded ilasm.exe
/ ildasm.exe filenames. Both are narrow problems: gate the Native package
to Windows, replace the ".exe" suffix with an OS-aware helper, and drop
the -windows TFM. The Microsoft.NETCore.IL{,D}Asm metapackages' RID graph
already ships ilasm/ildasm for linux + osx via per-RID runtime sub-packages
when RuntimeIdentifier resolves dynamically, so the tool just lands in the
test output dir with the right suffix on every host.
Windows-only test fixtures (RoundtripAssembly + the RunWithTestRunner,
SignAssembly, FindMSBuild call sites) gate via Assert.Ignore +
[Platform("Win")] so they skip on non-Windows instead of failing. CA1416
joins NoWarn -- the analyzer can't see the runtime guards, and the test
inputs (Console.CapsLock, Registry access) are decompilation targets, not
infrastructure.
BuildTools/pre-commit learns to find dotnet-format on non-Windows (XDG
basedir + no .exe suffix) so the hook can run wherever the build now does.
