DocFX bundles roslyn rather than using the version from the SDK

We noticed this when running against projects targeting .NET 10.0. They cannot use new language features, and starting with RC2 they stopped loading the source-generators built into the framework.

I found this was because docfx was using a copy of roslyn bundled inside it. Instead it should be either a) locating the roslyn from the SDK used by the project or b) allowing the user to specify a path as an escape hatch.

Is there any guide for locating the Roslyn packages from the SDK path?
