Widening the compiler matrix answers the open review question on the
Issue3230 fixture guard empirically: a class naming its own nested
interface in its base list is a Roslyn-era relaxation. The legacy csc
rejects every such shape with CS0146 (circular base class dependency,
it never reaches the accessibility check), mcs 2.6.4 rejects them with
CS0122/CS0146, and mcs 5.23 accepts them all, rejects naming a base
class's protected nested interface with the same CS0122 as Roslyn, and
emits the same transitive InterfaceImpl metadata. The fixtures are
therefore gated to ROSLYN || MCS5, which exercises the base-list filter
on mcs-generated metadata as well. The pre-existing class C needs
MCS2-specific expected output because mcs 2.6.4 reorders interface-impl
rows and explicit implementations in metadata.
