Releasing Websharper 6.x-net8 variants

[TheAngryByrd]

👋 Would it be possible to also get a -net8 of the latest version of the packages in 6? There's been a couple updates and would be nice to get a 6.1.7.476-net8 (or equivalent).

@TheAngryByrd Are you referring to FCS or WebSharper updates? Would it make things easier if we released WS8 (the generated output is massively different, but there shouldn't be too many breaking changes)? The only major pending roadblock for WS8 is in the WS project templates (sitelets in debug mode).

The Websharper.FSharp package:

• https://www.nuget.org/packages/WebSharper.FSharp/#versions-body-tab
• https://nuget.info/packages/WebSharper.FSharp/6.1.7.476
  • Contains the TFM for net6.0 while https://nuget.info/packages/WebSharper.FSharp/6.1.7.441-net8 contains net8.0.

The issue comes to requiring needing 6.0 installed to run it and it will end support In November

I don't think we rely on sitelets, so we'd be willing to try it for sure! Thanks! 😄
