Enable publishing as Trimmed on Linux

This should reduce the binary size quite substantially but will require some thorough testing.

This would be beneficial. I understand that .NET 6 will have even better trimming, so perhaps when we take that upgrade, we can address this.

Don't want motivation because it is temporary. Be crazy about inspiration positive things

To enable trimming we would need to:

  1. Migrate from Newtonsoft.Json to Sytem.Text.Json in Source Generator Mode.
  2. Migrate to .NET 7 where trimming is much improved.
  3. Update MSAL and System.Commandline and Avalonia to the latest (preview) versions that support trimming.
  4. Thorough testing.
