Switch to System.Text.Json

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Switch to using System.Text.Json instead of JSON.Net.

See https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/try-the-new-system-text-json-apis/ and https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/standard/serialization/system-text-json-migrate-from-newtonsoft-how-to?pivots=dotnet-6-0

We're using System.Text.Json for any new features we add, but note that the Deployment engine code is very tightly coupled to NewtonSoft - changes here would be extremely risky to existing users.

For the reasons Anthony mentioned above, I don't think we'll be able to prioritize this work.

Is it possible to at least migrate the decompiler from NewtonSoft to System.Text.Json? I'm using the decompiler in an Blazor WASM project. And using System.Text.Json is one of the performance best practices for Blazor WASM. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/blazor/performance?view=aspnetcore-6.0#use-systemtextjson
