Original Pull Request: https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/pull/9153

State: closed
Merged: Yes


A bug in VS 16.8 makes the WAP packaging project copy System.Core.dll
from the CLR into all WAP packages. We don't need it, and it adds 300kb
to our package (670kb uncompressed).

VS 16.9 sets the AddAdditionalExplicitAssemblyReferences to suppress
this assembly. If we do the same, we can avoid the reference and be
eady for VS 16.9.
