Description
### Describe the bug
`PublishItemsOutputGroupOutputs` should include all items that will be published when running `Publish` target without actually publishing them.
However, some targets that [`ComputeFilesToPublish`](https://github.com/dotnet/sdk/blob/main/src/Tasks/Microsoft.NET.Build.Tasks/targets/Microsoft.NET.Publish.targets#L453-L460) depends on only update `ResolvedFileToPublish` items after publishing them.
For example, `App.deps.json` is added to `ResolvedFileToPublish` by `GeneratePublishDependencyFile` target after calling `GenerateDepsFile` task. See https://github.com/dotnet/sdk/blob/main/src/Tasks/Microsoft.NET.Build.Tasks/targets/Microsoft.NET.Publish.targets#L1212.
Consequently, `App.deps.json` is missing from `PublishItemsOutputGroupOutputs` if only `PublishItemsOutputGroup` target is invoked on the project.
