Several packages are rather old - consider upgrading to newer versions

[NikolaMilosavljevic]

There are some very old packages used by the build.

Microsoft.Extensions.FileSystemGlobbing - version 2.0.0

This is very old version, from 2017. It seems that most other projects in .NET are using version 6.0.0, which is also most downloaded from NuGet.org.

Microsoft.Build.Framework - version 16.0.461
Microsoft.Build.Utilities.Core - version 16.0.461

These versions are also rather old, from 2019.

@MarcoRossignoli I recall you were doing something regarding FileSystemGlobbing for some SDK insertion. Is it related? Can we safely update?

Regarding the Microsoft.Build.*, I am afraid they are similar to Newtonsoft.Json and are dependencies that can be affecting user tests (@nohwnd can you confirm?). If that's the case we will need to discuss when is a good time to introduce this "breaking change".

Mmm I don't recall nothing related to the FileSystemGlobbing actually.

After installing the .NET 9 SDK I was confused that Newtonsoft.Json.dll is Version 13.0.1 in C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk\9.0.100\TestHostNetFramework. It is confusing that this older version is defined.

Why is this condition added?

<NewtonsoftJsonVersion>13.0.1</NewtonsoftJsonVersion>
<NewtonsoftJsonVersion Condition="'$(DotNetBuildSourceOnly)' == 'true'">13.0.3</NewtonsoftJsonVersion>
