Hi! When I build my analyzer it has some generated bindingRedirects but I don't understand why. I would like to understand why to see if there's a way to avoid it so that I can distribute my analyzer as a single exe that is framework dependent. The exe.config looks like this:

`<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

` This project started from the template Standalone Code Analysis Tool in Visual Studio

Hi @eriknielsen,

I have no insight on why it was added. Hopefully, @rainersigwald can tell us more.
