* Deprecate the Microsoft.AspNetCore.App metapackage in favor of targeting and runtime packs
* Stop producing Microsoft.AspNetCore.App, and runtime.$(rid).Microsoft.AspNetCore.App
* Generate the shared framework without using 'NuGet' restore
* Stop producing intermediate packages for shared-framework only assemblies
* Put the platform manifest into the targeting pack (data/Microsoft.AspNetCore.App.PlatformManifest.txt)
* Create well-known, shared intermediate directories that installers can use to bundle content
* Create a new package - Microsoft.AspNetCore.App.Runtime.${rid} - which contains crossgen-ed versions of shared framework assemblies. This will be used by the SDK to replace rid-split packages
* Add a task which can generate the .deps.json file for the shared framework. Unlike the existing task we have, this does not rely on consuming a .deps.json file generated by first running a restore on packages.
* Move the reference to xunit.runner.console into the normal targets and files for managing dependencies
* Produce binlogs during build
