Description

Do you plan to remove it in favor of System.Text.Json?

I've tried to do this and i got a (working?) result in a couple of hours... if it's appreciated and/or if you want ro review it i could do a PR ...

Doing this work, while doing some tests with the SeqTail sample) I've also found a dependency to Newtonsoft coming from Serilog.Formatting.Compact.Reader... so I substituted it also in that project... (i've also seen https://github.com/serilog/serilog-formatting-compact-reader/issues/22 ). In this case there are a lot of test and all them are passing. So i could make a PR also for this: let me know...

Done means an agreed scope and a reviewed change with the relevant tests passing.
