Plotly.Net support in Research environment needs updating
Expected Behavior
After Lean was migrated to .Net 9, Plotly.Net should still be supported for charting in .Net interactive notebooks as per the official documentation.
Actual Behavior
Using the lib following the official doc (that is, loading the local assemblies) now brings the following warning:
warning CS1701: Assuming assembly reference 'FSharp.Core, Version=8.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' used by 'Plotly.NET' matches identity 'FSharp.Core, Version=9.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' of 'FSharp.Core', you may need to supply runtime policy
Trying the Html method for displaying the chart inline (HTML(GenericChart.toChartHTML(...)) only returns the additional following warning without any display:
warning CS1701: Assuming assembly reference 'Microsoft.AspNetCore.Html.Abstractions, Version=2.2.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=adb9793829ddae60' used by 'Microsoft.DotNet.Interactive' matches identity 'Microsoft.AspNetCore.Html.Abstractions, Version=9.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=adb9793829ddae60' of 'Microsoft.AspNetCore.Html.Abstractions', you may need to supply runtime policy
Trying display(myChart) outputs a structured object without any display
Trying the myChart.Show() method throws the following exception:
System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception (2): An error occurred trying to start process 'xdg-open' with working directory '/Lean/Launcher/bin/Debug/Notebooks'. No such file or directory

Potential Solution
This probably has to do with Plotly.Net version. Trying to use the latest version in another non QC notebook, I had to do without inline display (images would open externally)
Reproducing the Problem
Had the error in distinct Notebooks so I believe the problem is general with Plotly.Net usage
System Information
Latest lean-cli, using vscode on Windows
