Description

This bug is tracking adding the "edit while open" and "automatic reload" features to C#/VB Shared Projects.

This needs to be opt'd in at the project type via these three:

```
ProjectCapability.HandlesOwnReload + "; " +
ProjectCapability.OpenProjectFile + "; " +
ProjectCapability.PreserveFormatting + "; " +
```

However, Shared Projects have their own hierarchy so there's probably work. Also due to C++ sharing a project type there's some C++ impact that needs to figured out.
