Note
Copilot was unable to run its full agentic suite in this review.
Speeds up local Release builds by preventing dotnet format from running repeatedly for each target framework (while still skipping on GitHub Actions).
Changes:
- Updates the
DotnetFormatOnBuildMSBuild target condition to only run on local Release builds fornet10.0. - Expands inline documentation to explain why formatting is restricted to a single TFM.

Motivation and Context
Currently when doing a release build locally, it runs dotnet format
(target framework count) squaredtimes, since it runs dotnet format for each target framework as part of the overall build, but dotnet format already formats for each target framework anyway.All this only applies when run locally. This file does not apply when running on the build server, which already does this correctly.
