Reference Microsoft.Bcl.AsyncInterfaces from package Google.Cloud.VertexAI.Extensions

[AustinWise]

The Google.Cloud.VertexAI.Extensions assembly references types from Microsoft.Bcl.AsyncInterfaces like IAsyncEnumerable. The Google.Cloud.VertexAI.Extensions Nuget package needs to declare a dependency on the Microsoft.Bcl.AsyncInterfaces package so that a compatible version is restored when consumed from .NET Core projects.

Fixes #15350

Summary of Changes

Hello @AustinWise, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request resolves a critical dependency issue within the Google.Cloud.VertexAI.Extensions NuGet package. By explicitly declaring a dependency on Microsoft.Bcl.AsyncInterfaces, it guarantees that necessary asynchronous interface types, such as IAsyncEnumerable, are always available and correctly restored when the package is used in .NET Core environments. This change enhances the stability and reliability of the package for consumers.

Highlights

• Dependency Resolution: Added a direct package reference to Microsoft.Bcl.AsyncInterfaces in the Google.Cloud.VertexAI.Extensions project file.
• Runtime Stability: Ensures that IAsyncEnumerable and other types from Microsoft.Bcl.AsyncInterfaces are correctly resolved, preventing potential runtime issues in .NET Core projects consuming the Google.Cloud.VertexAI.Extensions NuGet package.

Code Review

This pull request adds an explicit package reference for Microsoft.Bcl.AsyncInterfaces to the Google.Cloud.VertexAI.Extensions project. This is a good change that makes a transitive dependency direct, which improves dependency resolution robustness for the package's consumers. The change is correct and follows existing patterns in the project file. I see no issues with this change.

LGTM and thanks for the analysis - I've looked into this before, but ended up getting confused (and possibly didn't try building a project using .NET 10).

Would like @amanda-tarafa to look before merging though.
