Containers.Tools.Targets 1.20.0 breaks VisualStudioCredential Token on VS 2022 17.9.5

Updating the Microsoft.VisualStudio.Azure.Containers.Tools.Targets package to 1.20.0 in a .NET 8 project running under VS 2022 17.9.5, the Azure Identity DefaultAzureCredential GetToken operation fails because it seems unable to fetch the VisualStudioCredential (which is being used to connect to Azure hosted services):

Reverting back to 1.19.6 restores normal functionality.

Thank you! Regards.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention, we've uploaded a new version that should address this: 1.20.1.

Updated to 1.20.1 and can confirm it no longer fails.
