Pull Request Overview

This PR disables static graph restore for file-based apps to resolve issue #49876. The change prevents MSBuild from using static graph evaluation during restore operations for C# files that are run directly without a project file.

  • Adds RestoreUseStaticGraphEvaluation>false property to virtual project files generated for file-based apps
  • Includes test coverage for both implicit and explicit static graph restore scenarios

Should we try looking through the property directives and seeing if any of them are an explicit enable of static graph, and give a more reasonable error if so? Or is it too niche?
