Fix @section directive incorrectly allowed in .razor files
Summary of the changes
The @section directive was incorrectly registered for both .cshtml (MVC/Razor Pages) and .razor (Blazor components) files. Per documentation, @section is only valid in MVC/Razor Pages. Using it in .razor files produces compilation errors.
Changes:
-
SectionDirective.cs: RemovedRazorFileKind.Componentfrom directive registration -
SectionDirectivePassTest.cs: Added tests verifying directive availability per file kind -
ComponentCodeGenerationTestBase.cs: Added integration testSectionDirective_NotAllowedto verify code generation behavior and prevent regressions
Before:
builder.AddDirective(Directive, RazorFileKind.Legacy, RazorFileKind.Component);
After:
builder.AddDirective(Directive, RazorFileKind.Legacy);
Code Generation Verification:
The integration test confirms that when @section is used in a .razor file, it is no longer recognized as a directive and is instead treated as regular content, preventing compilation errors. Baseline files demonstrate the expected code generation output for both runtime and design-time scenarios.
Fixes: #11273

@dotnet/razor-tooling for reviews please :)
@chsienki you should also take this out of draft if you're happy with it
@copilot can you add a compiler integration test for a component with
@sectionin it, so we can see the code-gen and ensure nothing regresses. Perhaps something like:
...
Added the compiler integration test SectionDirective_NotAllowed in commit 985a0a4. The test verifies code-gen for components with @section and confirms it's no longer recognized as a directive, preventing compilation errors.
The test shows that @section One { <p>Content</p> } in a .razor file is now treated as regular content rather than a directive.
