ApiCompatValidateAssemblies docs don't mention how to specify the baseline assemblies
Issue description
I was reading the https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/fundamentals/apicompat/assembly-validation document and see that it tells folks how to turn on the task, but not how to provide inputs. It does mention:
Validates that there are no breaking changes across versions.
I think it will get it's multi-targeting inputs from the project automatically, but it needs the author to tell it how to find the previous version to compare to.
I think the way to do this is to specify ApiCompatContractAssembly and do so in a way that's specific to each TargetFramework of the project.
It would be nice to see a sample for how someone might do this.
