Description
### Describe the bug
If I create a .NET 8 WinUI Class library, and then reference that in a .NET 9 MAUI project, I get the following build error:
> >C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk\9.0.101\Sdks\Microsoft.NET.Sdk\targets\Microsoft.PackageDependencyResolution.targets(266,5): error NETSDK1005: Assets file 'E:\source\WinUIClassLibraryNet8\WinUIClassLibraryNet8\obj\project.assets.json' doesn't have a target for 'net9.0-windows10.0.19041.0'. Ensure that restore has run and that you have included 'net9.0-windows10.0.19041.0' in the TargetFrameworks for your project.
### To Reproduce
- Create a WinUI .NET 8 Class Library
- Create a .NET MAUI .NET 9 Class Library
- Add a project reference to the NET8 WinUI project from the NET9 MAUI project
``
- Build the project and observe the build error mentioned above.
Repro project: [WinUIClassLibraryNet8.zip](https://github.com/user-attachments/files/18337904/WinUIClassLibraryNet8.zip)
### Exceptions (if any)
project.assets.json' doesn't have a target for 'net9.0-windows10.0.19041.0'. Ensure that restore has run and that you have included 'net9.0-windows10.0.19041.0' in the TargetFrameworks for your project.

### Workarounds:
Add the following to the project reference:
`TargetFramework=net8.0-windows10.0.19041.0`
or change the WinUI class library to use `TargetFrameworks` instead of `TargetFramework` which seem silly when there's just one TFM.
