Description
We should have an analyzer that advises against setting properties via /p: in response files.
These are not picked up by VS, CloudBuild etc. resulting in behavior changes. Properties should go in Directory.Build.props

Research direction
Start by reviewing MSBuild's existing analyzer and response-file behavior to identify the relevant entry points; the issue does not name specific files or tests. Done means an analyzer warns when properties are set with /p: in response files and directs users to Directory.Build.props.
