Addressed the feedback in commit 93c5c75:

1. Removed committed package file (tbc.console.1.0.0.nupkg) and updated .gitignore to exclude output/ directory
2. Reverted tbc.core and tbc.target projects to only target netstandard2.1;net472 (removed net9.0 target since netstandard projects don't need explicit .NET 9 targets)
3. Updated build.yml to install .NET 9.0.100 instead of .NET 8.0.100

The solution still builds successfully with .NET 9, with the main application projects (tbc.host, tbc.host.console, TestSocketTarget) targeting .NET 9 while the library projects maintain netstandard compatibility.
