Major architectural overhaul to enable online Dataverse data fetching via an out-of-process proxy. Introduces new projects for proxy server and IPC contracts, implements named pipe communication, and refactors core logic to use a new IOnlineDataService abstraction. Removes legacy direct connection code, adds support for parallel test execution, and packages the proxy with NuGet for auto-discovery.
Removed all out-of-process DataverseProxy infrastructure, including server, client, contracts, and related tests. Online data fetching now uses direct connection via DataverseConnection and ServiceClient, with no proxy process or named pipe communication. Cleaned up all proxy-specific code, settings, and abstractions. Updated project dependencies and documentation accordingly.
Refactored codebase to always include IOnlineDataService support by removing most #if DATAVERSE_SERVICE_CLIENT directives. Constructors and methods now accept IOnlineDataService parameters, defaulting to null when not provided. Online data features are now guarded by runtime checks instead of compile-time flags. Updated XrmMockup365.GetInstance and StaticMetadataCache usage accordingly. This simplifies maintenance and enables more flexible runtime configuration.

This pull request refactors the way the codebase interacts with online data services, moving away from the legacy
OrganizationServiceProxyapproach to a newIOnlineDataServiceabstraction. This change modernizes the code, improves testability, and prepares the project for better compatibility with Dataverse Service Client. Additionally, it introduces new scripts for local packaging and versioning, and slightly updates the local settings.Refactoring and modernization of online data access:
OrganizationServiceProxywith the newIOnlineDataServiceinterface throughoutCore.csandXrmDb.cs, updating constructors, fields, and method calls accordingly. This also includes updating the logic for retrieving and pre-filling data from an online service.
