Research direction

Start by locating the csharp-netcore generator and its Newtonsoft.Json serializer dependency, then review the issue discussion for compatibility requirements. Trace where serialization is configured and identify the relevant generated-client tests. Done means csharp-netcore generation uses System.Text.Json without the Newtonsoft.Json dependency and the existing tests pass.
