Native code for PowerShell has been moved to repository PowerShell/PowerShell-Native.
Hence, removing all the native code and related build components.
Replace code like BoundParameters.ContainsKey("Delimiter") with BoundParameters.ContainsKey(nameof(Delimiter)). Old pattern come from old C# (<6.0) without nameof().
Add the following aliases to MaxHops parameter of Test-Connection cmdlet:
- TimeToLive
It is the similar parameter's name from Windows PowerShell Test-Connection cmdlet .
- Hops
Similar parameter's name from Test-NetConnection cmdlet.
The type System.IntPtr has an explicit cast operator defined that takes a pointer type System.void* parameter. Now we handle that type properly in GetPSMethodProjectedType.
Fixes#7230.
Adding the concept of a PSSyntheticTypeName, derived from PSTypeName,
that extends it with a list of synthetic members.
This allows us to express the inferred type of
```
[pscustomobject] @{
A = 1
B = "2"
}
```
as a "PSObject#A:B" and with information about the types of A and B.
This is also used to annotate the output of
```
Select-Object -Property
Select-Object -ExcludeProperty
Select-Object -ExpandProperty
```
Finally, it adds information about the types of the
`Group` and `Value` properties of the output of `Group-Object`
'cd +' adds the ability to revert 'cd -' by having another bounded stack with the same limit for 'redo' actions.
Behaviour is similar to back/forward navigation in explorer.exe
When the location is set to a path and the redo stack is non-empty then the redo stack gets flushed.
When cd + happens, then the redo stack is pushed to as well for a more intuitive way of navigating backwards and forwards.
All the work is done of course on the Set-location cmdlet, which is aliased to cd on all platforms.
Support calling methods with ByRef-like type parameters in PowerShell, as long as the argument specified for the parameter can be implicitly/explicitly converted to the ByRef-like type.
We cannot create an instance of a ByRef-like type in PowerShell, but there are types that can be implicitly or explicitly converted to ByRef-like types, such as `T[] -> Span<T>`, `T[] -> ReadOnlySpan<T>`, `String -> ReadOnlySpan<T>`. `ArraySegment<T> -> Span<T>`, `ArraySegment<T> -> ReadOnlySpan<T>`. With changes in this PR, we can call methods with ByRef-like parameter types by providing the arguments of the types that can be cast to the target ByRef-like type.
**What is enabled?**
1. Invoking methods that have ByRef-like parameters, but the return type is not ByRef-like.
2. Invoking constructors with ByRef-like parameters via `[target-type]::new` syntax, but the `target-type` is not ByRef-like.
3. Accessing indexers that have ByRef-like parameters, but the return type is not ByRef-like.
