`WindowsIdentity` references .NET Framework code and has bad example code

[ppena-LiveData]

Type of issue

Code doesn't work

Description

The .NET CoreWindowsIdentity documentation has various places that link to the .NET Framework WindowsImpersonationContext class that does not exist in .NET Core, and the example code is copied verbatim from the .NET Framework version of WindowsIdentity's doc, which would not work or even compile, since it references an Impersonate() method, which as far as I can tell is only in the .NET Framework version of WindowsIdentity, not in the .NET Core version of it.
