Description

The resources section of the .NET Framework content can probably be moved to the standard folder and made more generic. Right now it's very .NET Framework focused.

Thoughts and tasks:

- [ ] Content moved to /standard
- [ ] All content scrubbed for .NET. .NET Framework should only be mentioned when it's specific to it, such as the GAC.
- [ ] Satellite assemblies for Desktop apps scrubbed. This doesn't need to be "for Desktop apps" it's really for anything, even console apps.
- [ ] Figure out what tool alternatives there are in the .NET 5/6 world to replace the VS .NET Framework tools used in working with assemblies and resources (such as _al.exe_ and _resgen.exe_)
- [ ] Should document the `NeutralLanguage` and `GenerateNeutralResourcesLanguageAttribute` project properties. See this [MSBuild config](https://github.com/dotnet/sdk/blob/94a3f2856cb09e66ee7472820b4e26fb576b4686/src/Tasks/Microsoft.NET.Build.Tasks/build/Microsoft.NET.GenerateAssemblyInfo.targets#L83) for info.
