migrate-xunit-to-xunit-v3

Migrate .NET test projects from xUnit.net v2 to xunit.v3 and fix v3 breaks. Use for package/CPM conversion, OutputType=Exe, preserving the VSTest or MTP runner (including projects currently using YTest.MTP.XUnit2), incompatible TFMs, async void tests, string-to-Type attributes, custom Fact/Theory/BeforeAfterTest attributes, Xunit.SkippableFact, xunit.abstractions/extensibility consolidation, and Xunit.Combinatorial/StaFact compatibility. Do not use for framework conversion or a runner-only migration. For xUnit v3 MTP filter syntax, also use migrate-vstest-to-mtp.

# xunit.v3 Migration

Migrate .NET test projects from xUnit.net v2 to xUnit.net v3. The outcome is a solution where all test projects reference `xunit.v3.*` packages, compiles cleanly, and all tests pass with the same results as before migration.

## When to Use

- Upgrading test projects from `xunit` (v2) packages to `xunit.v3`
- Resolving compilation errors after updating xunit package references to v3

## When Not to Use

- Migrating between test frameworks (e.g., MSTest or NUnit to xUnit.net) — different effort entirely
- Migrating from VSTest to Microsoft.Testing.Platform — use `migrate-vstest-to-mtp`
- The projects already reference `xunit.v3` — migration is done
