Description
### Summary
Property functions currently support invoking methods but users have to come up with creative ways to new up objects. This is a proposal to add a supported syntax for instantiating objects and calling their constructors.
### Background and Motivation
Objects can be created using awkward workarounds like this one:
`$(MSBuildProjectDirectory.GetType().Assembly.GetType('System.AppDomain').GetProperty('CurrentDomain').GetValue(null, null).CreateInstanceAndUnwrap(mscorlib, Type.Of.The.Object.To.Instantiate))`
### Proposed Feature
Add a supported syntax equivalent to the C# _new_. Preferably containing the customary word _new_, although something like `$([Type.Of.The.Object.To.Instantiate]::.ctor(Parameters))` would also do.
### Alternative Designs
