Automatically select DLL and XML files for API ref generation #591

@gewarren

Description

@gewarren

Automate these steps in the API ref generation process:

  1. Get assemblies/XML files for core .NET libraries.

  2. Get assemblies/XML files for Windows Desktop libraries.

    • Download the https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.WindowsDesktop.App.Ref package. (Check the version first!)
    • Remove all the façade dlls except WindowsBase.dll (usually just Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll and System.Drawing.dll).
    • Remove the XML documentation files.
    • Copy everything into the /dotnet/windowsdesktop- folder (clear it first if necessary).
    • Copy System.Security.Cryptography.dll from /dotnet/ to /dotnet/dependencies/windowsdesktop- (overwrite old copy if necessary).
