Update Target Framework Moniker to net8.0

Upgraded the Target Framework Moniker (TFM) from net7.0 to net8.0 in multiple configurations, project files, and script files. This includes modifying the task arguments, project configurations, constants, and GitHub workflows to reflect the changes made to accommodate the new net8.0 framework.

The SDK version has been updated in the global.json file to "8.0.100-rc.2.23502.2", and additional properties such as "allowPrerelease" and "rollForward" have been set. In the BuildLifetime.cs file, a new property "IncludeSourceRevisionInInformationalVersion" has also been added to address a specific issue namely, 'dotnet/docs#37674'.
