Fix: PlatformNotSupportedException: Operation is not supported on this platform in Native AOT

Native AOT strips the JIT and the interpreter, so reflection emit, expression-tree compilation, and unseen MakeGenericType throw at runtime. Find the call via IL3050 and replace it with a source generator or a pre-baked path.

Fix: Unable to resolve service for type 'X' while attempting to activate 'Y'

ASP.NET Core throws this when a constructor asks for a type that was never registered, was registered on the wrong container, or was added after the host was built. Three concrete fixes cover almost every case.

Fix: A second operation was started on this context instance before a previous operation completed
