Upgraded package and assembly references from v5.0.0 to v6.0.1 across all projects. Added binding redirects in app.config files to ensure runtime compatibility. This update provides improved security and compatibility.
Upgraded Microsoft.Data.SqlClient, System.Formats.Asn1, Microsoft.Extensions, and other core dependencies to latest versions. Added new package references (Azure.Core, Azure.Identity, System.ClientModel, etc.). Updated assembly binding redirects and project references for compatibility. No application code changes; all updates are related to dependency and configuration management.
Upgraded Microsoft.Identity.Client to version 4.82.1 in all projects, updated related assembly references and binding redirects, and ensured packages.config reflects the new version. Also updated Microsoft.IdentityModel.Abstractions to 8.14.0 and added System.Formats.Asn1 where required. These changes improve consistency and compatibility for authentication dependencies.
