Blazor MSAL RedirectToLogin.razor reference source out of date

[jbw716]

Description

The sample RedirectToLogin.razor component that is linked to in the Blazor MSAL docs as the "reference source" is out of date since .NET 7+.

Here is the reference that it directs to:
https://github.com/dotnet/aspnetcore/blob/v9.0.0/src/ProjectTemplates/Web.ProjectTemplates/content/ComponentsWebAssembly-CSharp/Layout/RedirectToLogin.razor

However, as of .NET 7+, the following is required for this to work correctly:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/compatibility/aspnet-core/7.0/wasm-app-authentication#recommended-action

Could the documentation here be updated then to describe the issue or the correct way to do it now? Currently, it still links to that example for .NET versions 7+, which caused our team some grief when using this component and wondering why the exact example linked by the docs wasn't working correctly. Additionally, the .NET 7 breaking changes section wasn't terribly easily found through search engines and took quite a bit of digging.

Hold on a sec. I had to strike that response. I was looking at the wrong template.
