Description

The older documentation of AesCryptoServiceProvider class specifically mentions the instance threadsafety of this class and static member thread safety but it has been omitted from the latest docs.

https://github.com/dotnet/dotnet-api-docs/blob/master/xml/System.Security.Cryptography/AesCryptoServiceProvider.xml

The older documentation on [AesCryptoServiceProvider ](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/embedded/bb343262(v%3Dvs.102)#thread-safety) states

> Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.

Can we add this back in?
