                        Code Quality: Introduce `Directory.Packages.props` for better dependency management
Description
Similar to #14826, which would allow for seamless property management across projects, but instead this would allow for seamless package management. This would allow for easier ability to update dependencies across projects.
Concerned code
All projects.
Gains
- Better ability to update dependencies
- Easier way to see all the dependencies used by the projects and quickly identify each of them
- Offers similar benefits to using Directory.Build.props
Requirements
Very easy:
- Create Directory.Packages.propsfile
- Migrate package references into the file
- Remove version references from project files
- Add package references to project files
