[Umbrella] Rewamping the library about codejam HOT 5 OPEN

It seems like Theraot is not so maintained.
So there is some missing functionality thee, the coverage for new .NET features is not as good as it could be.
Tried to contact the maintainer but didn't have any luck.

Yeah, I've managed to remove dependency on Theraot from most target frameworks except for net35 and net40.

Ah. Great.
There is a modern solution for new features using source generators for .NET Standard 2.0 and above.

Well, never heard of that^) Do you mean some package/project or it's more like an idea to be done?
If the latter, it's simpler to use source-only packages such as Nullable. Sadly, there's not so many usable ones.

As for source generators, I'd prefer to not use them unless absolutely mandatory. Source generators are hard to maintain and they are much more verbose than good old undead T4.

Here the list.
Yeah T4 is nice but Source Generators are better integrated today.
