Remove Autofac NuGet dependency and replace the DI container usage in Program.cs with simple reflection to discover and instantiate IDay implementations. Since none of the Day classes have constructor dependencies, a DI container is unnecessary. Co-authored-by: ianfnelson <205606+ianfnelson@users.noreply.github.com>

Autofac was only used for assembly scanning to discover
IDayimplementations. Since none have constructor dependencies, a DI container is unnecessary.Autofacpackage reference fromAdventOfCode.csprojContainerBuilder/ResolveinProgram.cswith plain reflection:All 182 tests pass. No other files reference Autofac.
