Harmony 2.3-prerelease.2

Harmony 2.3 now uses MonoMod.Core which is a rewrite of the low level backend for patching .net methods. We have been preparing and testing this for months but since so much has changed behind the scenes, the community need to step up and actively test if this release breaks things.

On the plus side, we now have .NET 7 support (yay!) and hopefully a bunch of bug fixes.

Harmony v2.3 also no longer merges Mono.Cecil into 0harmony.dll which means you probably need to supply it as a dependency yourself if you need it. The advantage on the other hand is that users who already use Cecil don't have any conflicts anymore.
