Pull request overview

This PR fixes nullable reference type (NRT) resolution for AIFunction parameters by implementing support for detecting and properly handling nullable reference types in JSON schema generation. The fix addresses issue #7182 by adding a NullabilityInfoContext polyfill for legacy frameworks (pre-.NET 6.0) and using it to determine if reference type parameters are nullable.

Changes:

  • Added comprehensive test coverage for nullable value types and nullable reference types in JSON schema generation
  • Implemented nullable reference type detection using NullabilityInfoContext in the schema creation logic
  • Added complete NullabilityInfoContext polyfill for .NET Framework 4.6.2, .NET Standard 2.0, and .NET Core 3.1

## 1.2.6

## What's Changed
### [Bug]: XML with DOCTYPE results in "invalid xml" warning
[#​1809](belav/csharpier#1809)
CSharpier was not formatting xml that included a doctype and instead
reporting that it was invalid xml.
```xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE staff SYSTEM "staff.dtd"[
    <!ENTITY ent1 "es">
]>
<staff></staff>
```
### [Bug]: Initializing a span using `stackalloc` leads to different
formatting compared to `new`
[#​1808](belav/csharpier#1808)
When initializing a spacn using stackalloc, it was not being formatting
consistently with other code
```c#
// input & expected output
Span<int> metatable = new int[]
{
    00000000000000000000000001,
    00000000000000000000000002,
    00000000000000000000000003,
};

Span<int> metatable = stackalloc int[]
{
    00000000000000000000000001,
    00000000000000000000000002,
    00000000000000000000000003,
};

// 1.2.5
Span<int> metatable = new int[]
{
    00000000000000000000000001,
    00000000000000000000000002,
    00000000000000000000000003,
};

Span<int> metatable =
    stackalloc int[] {
        00000000000000000000000001,
        00000000000000000000000002,
        00000000000000000000000003,
    };

```
### [Bug]: Comments in otherwise empty object pattern disappear when
formatting [#​1804](belav/csharpier#1804)
CSharpier was removing comments if they were the only content of an
object pattern.
```c#
// input & expected output
var match = obj is {
    //Property: 123
