Excluding generated code does not work

Description

I refactored my code generator to emit .generated.cs instead of .g.cs trying to get rid of warnings. This did not change anything.
e.g. .generated.cs(11,30): Warning CS0169 : The field 'x' is never used.

As the runtime uses .g.cs it should be added or replace the .generated.cs entry in the list of valid patterns that are considered generated code (https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/blob/main/src/libraries/System.Private.CoreLib/gen/EventSourceGenerator.Emitter.cs)

Next I'm trying to use the GeneratedCodeAttribute as seen in the runtime file. This attribute isn't mentioned at all in docs.

@boppbo The warning in your example, CS0169, doesn't come from code analysis - it comes from the C# compiler.

Yes, i learned that too and used #pragma directives to disable them. Thanks for trying to help.

Maybe it would be worth mentioning compiler warnings in this section as it was the article i found first and it would be nice to fall easier in the pit of success.
