A Roslyn local function name is "<caller>g__name|x_y", where the trailing digits
are a synthetic disambiguator that SplitName has to strip before the scope-local
renumbering can run. An obfuscated name has no such suffix, so running it through
the same path renames "smethod_1" to "smethod_" -- a needless second mangling on
top of what the obfuscator already did.

Both types are consumed well outside the C# output layer - DecompileRun
carries the using scope, and the IL transforms build a resolve context from
it - so living in ICSharpCode.Decompiler.CSharp.TypeSystem misrepresented
where they belong and forced a C#-specific namespace import on every
consumer.

Backing-field references inside a property's own get/set/init accessors
are emitted as the `field` keyword at IL-to-AST translation time
(ExpressionBuilder.ConvertField), so arbitrary accessor bodies become
expressible and no separate rewrite pass is needed. Compiler-generated
trivial accessors then collapse individually to `get;`/`set;`, which
also handles mixed shapes like `{ get; set { ... field ... } }`; the
backing-field declaration is removed with its remaining attributes
re-hosted as `field:` sections, and constructor stores become property
initializers (or property assignments, for setter-less properties).
Implicit zero-stores that auto-default struct constructors emit for
unassigned backing fields are dropped rather than lifted.
Recognition stays AST/metadata-based rather than mirroring the ILAst
analysis used for automatic events: events must prove compiler-generated
bodies before discarding them, while the field keyword discards nothing,
so name association plus the accessor context is sufficient.
Below C# 14 (or with the new FieldKeyword setting off), the field
declaration survives under its metadata name, so the UI keeps showing
the truth; EscapeInvalidIdentifiers - the transform the compilable-output
flows (project export, VS, tests) already add - now maps
`<P>k__BackingField` to the readable `P__BackingField` instead of the
generic character escape. A genuine field literally named "field" is
qualified as `this.field` inside accessors, and locals are not named
"field" there, since C# 14 rebinds the bare identifier. Bodiless
accessors mixed into multi-line properties get their own line in the
output.
The fixture covering the feature surface lands with the implementation rather
than as a separate xfailed commit. It is excluded from the test-assembly
compilation because its nullable annotations would trip warnings-as-errors
there.

Under UseLambdaSyntax, anonymous functions became lambdas only when an
expression body was possible; statement-bodied ones kept C# 2 delegate
syntax. Now every anonymous function whose parameter shape a lambda can
express uses lambda syntax; delegate syntax remains for ref/out/in and
params parameters and for pre-C# 3 language profiles.
Two latent issues surfaced by the wider lambda coverage: DeclareVariables
assumed an insertion point directly under a LambdaExpression is an
expression body it must convert to a block, which block-bodied lambdas
now violate; and anonymous methods declared without a parameter list
carry compiler-generated parameter names like '<p0>' that are not valid
identifiers, so the lambda's mandatory parameter list regenerates such
names from the parameter type: (object obj, EventArgs e) => ...
A side effect visible in fixtures: an explicit parameter list can make
a delegate-creation cast redundant that bare 'delegate' syntax needed
for overload resolution, e.g. new Thread((ThreadStart)delegate { })
becomes new Thread(() => { }).

CleanUpVariableName sits on the per-variable naming path of every
decompiled method and allocated up to three intermediates (backtick
cut, m_/_ prefix strip, lowercase-first concat) before producing its
result, and its callers added further throwaway substrings when
stripping get_/set_/Get/Set and interface-I prefixes. The cuts are now
slices over the original name: ContainsNonPrintableIdentifierChar and
IsValidName gained span overloads, and only the final lowered name is
materialized, in a single allocation via char[] (netstandard2.0 has no
string(span) constructor). IsKeyword keeps its string parameter - it
is called on that final string anyway, and the keyword HashSet has no
span lookup on netstandard2.0.

The loop preceding the parse has already proven that the tail consists
solely of ASCII digits, so the Substring+int.TryParse pair only
re-validated them at the cost of a throwaway string allocation.
SplitName runs per variable and per reserved-name registration for
every decompiled method, making this one of the hottest Substring call
sites in the decompiler. Accumulating the digits inline keeps the
TryParse overflow semantics (fall back to number=1 and the unchanged
name) without allocating.

A C# anonymous type is immutable and compares every member. VB's are neither
unless every property is declared 'Key': otherwise the properties are settable
and only the 'Key' ones take part in Equals and GetHashCode. Writing such a
type as 'new { ... }' silently gave it value equality and made any assignment
to one of its properties fail to compile, so only an anonymous type with no
settable property is treated as one; the rest keep their own declaration.
Those declarations carry the shape VB gave them, so the round-trip preserves
both mutability and 'Key' equality. Their names are the remaining obstacle,
since the VB compiler separates the parts with '$': the type, its backing
fields and any local named after it are renamed to use '_' instead, and a
comment on the declaration says why the type is spelled out.
Generated variable names are now rejected when they would not be legal C#
identifiers, which also stops a display class from lending its unspeakable
name to a local in the NoLocalFunctions output.
