Description

Remove ResolveStep (#1169) changes AddUnresolveMarker calls for a warning message, this could lead to warnings that cannot be deleted in the case an XML file comes embedded in the assembly.
Example:
You have an application that includes a nugget package, no source code for it. and contains an embedded XML on it with a bug/mismatch and talks about an unexisting member. If it warns there would be no way to get rid of the warning.
XmlAnnotation (#1176) mimics this same behavior
