.NET DllExport 1.8.1. Public release

* FIXED: Possible "The method or operation is not implemented." Issue #245.

* FIXED: When using netfx-based assemblers, possible: "Failed to define a document writer."

* FIXED: Fixed ILMerge support for rebasing feature. Possible:
         - "Format of the executable (.exe) or library (.dll) is invalid."

* FIXED: Pre-Proc Exec: possible "Input file ... does not exist, cannot create unmanaged exports."

* FIXED: Pre-Proc Exec: incorrectly applied $(TargetName).dll from ILMerge / ILRepack

* NEW: Added PDB support (MSF + Portable(BSJB)) for 3F's assembler (9.4+)
       Part of issue #23
       details: 3F/coreclr#3

* NEW: Additional [Ref] without strict merging (1.8.0) to support .NET Core targets
       .NET 9, .NET 8, .NET 7, .NET 6, .NET 5, netcoreapp3.1, ...
       For example,
       ```
        Assembly? _Get(string input, string asm)
            => input.StartsWith(asm + ",") ? Assembly.LoadFrom(Path.Combine(dir, asm + ".dll")) : null;

        AppDomain.CurrentDomain.AssemblyResolve += (s, a) => _Get(a.Name, "System.Memory");
        ```
        See assets for a full example: https://github.com/3F/DllExport/tree/master/src/DllExport/assets

* CHANGED: Remove all x86+x64 .dlls [Ref] dependencies when activated merging.

* CHANGED: More control around /lib for ILMerge & ILRepack:
       + Automatic DllExportPreProcSysLibs property for any related purposes;
       + UI [Lib] option in Pre-Processing when using ILMerge or ILRepack;
       + Automatic fallback for ILMerge + Lib + netstandard2.0;

* CHANGED: Post-Proc. UI Wizard: Added "Filter by property name ..."

* CHANGED: Manager: Removed obsolete MsgGuiLevel feature. Please use wDxpMsgLevel instead.
           For example: set "wDxpMsgLevel=Trace" & DllExport ...

* CHANGED: Pre-Proc. Updated ILRepack 2.0.43
           https://github.com/gluck/il-repack/releases/tag/2.0.43

* CHANGED: Updated 3F's IL Assembler 9.4
           https://github.com/3F/coreclr/releases/tag/9.4.0

* NOTE: To upgrade from older versions:
        Automatically: DllExport -action Upgrade -dxp-version 1.8.1
        or
        Manually: DllExport -mgr-up -dxp-version 1.8.1

        https://3F.github.io/DllExport/releases/latest/manager/
        * https://github.com/3F/DllExport/releases/tag/1.8.1
