Two of the defects reported on issue #2253 come from the decompiler
writing text that means something else when it is read again.
A markup extension is written as a single attribute value, and its
grammar gives ',' '=' '{' '}' and the quote characters a meaning. Values
went out unquoted, so an argument carrying any of them was read back as
further name/value pairs: {DXBinding Expr='Price - Prev > 0 ? ...'}, the
reported case, no longer compiles at all (MC3042, MC3045). Values without
such a character stay unquoted, because quoting them would rewrite every
document that never needed it.
A clr-namespace declaration names the CLR namespace it maps, but nothing
read that name out of it, so no lookup by namespace could match a
declaration the document itself had made. Every type in such a namespace
then got a second prefix declared on the element that used it. The
assembly is the second half of the same lookup, and there the document
records the name it was written against while a well-known type carries
the assembly it resolves to now - "mscorlib" against
"System.Private.CoreLib" - so the two are also accepted as the same when
the recorded assembly forwards the type.

An assembly can map one CLR namespace to several XML namespaces: PresentationFramework
maps its namespaces to both the winfx/2006 and the netfx/2007 presentation namespace. The
fallback used when the BAML xmlns records name no namespace for a type always preferred the
winfx/2006 one, so a document that binds the default prefix to netfx/2007 ended up with a
root start tag that declares one presentation namespace and needs the other for its own
name, which XmlWriter rejects. Only the root carries the xmlns declaration, which is why
skipping XClassRewritePass worked around it.

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.

* Set v11 RTM
* Update features in README.md
* Remove the two 900-iteration process-list scroll tests
* Keep Svg.Controls.Skia.Avalonia at 12.0.0.13
* 10.0.11 and Roslyn for net11p7
* Fix module-scan test failing when PowerShell's NGen images are stale
* Opt Pack NuGets out of the MSBuild server to fix SBOM generation
The BAML tests were orphaned: in no solution, no CI, and missing their
ICSharpCode.BamlDecompiler reference. Revive them split by platform,
mirroring ILSpy.Tests / ILSpy.Tests.Windows: ILSpy.BamlDecompiler.Tests
(net11.0) holds platform-agnostic tests - including a regression test that
decompiles with the WPF assemblies hidden, covering the missing-assembly
fix - and ILSpy.BamlDecompiler.Tests.Windows (net11.0-windows) holds the
WPF round-trip cases that compile XAML into BAML. Single-TFM projects keep
normal lock files; the Windows one declares all RIDs so its lock is
generatable and verifiable on any host.
Wire the cross-platform project into ILSpy.sln, ILSpy.XPlat.slnf and
ILSpy.Desktop.slnf so it builds and runs on the Linux/macOS legs; the
Windows project stays in ILSpy.sln (its tests execute in the Windows leg).
The Windows job also archives that assembly, whose embedded BAML lets the
decompiler be exercised against real BAML on a host without WPF.
