Description
### Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
It's related to an issue with the `Configure()` method in `Startup`.
### Describe the solution you'd like
Recently a developer on a project I'm on created a `Configure()` method like this:
```
public async Task Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IConfiguration config)
```
This will compile just fine, but when you run it, you get this exception:
> System.InvalidOperationException : The 'Configure' method in the type 'XYZ' must have a return type of 'Void'.
Now, there are ways to get around this (https://andrewlock.net/running-async-tasks-on-app-startup-in-asp-net-core-part-1/), but the point is, if an analyzer was in place to make sure methods in `Startup` are defined correctly, we wouldn't have to wait until we ran the code to know there's a problem.
