PackageReference PrivateAssets are added to @(ReferenceCopyLocalPaths)

[AlexEyler]

Please read the following information before posting the issue.

Details about Problem

NuGet product used (NuGet.exe | VS UI | Package Manager Console | dotnet.exe): msbuild

Detailed repro steps so we can see the same problem

1. Create a new .NET Framework project (ex: CSharp class library)
2. Add a PackageReference to the project
3. Set the PackageReference to include PrivateAssets="true"
4. Build (preferably with /bl to view the log)
   Expected: @(ReferenceCopyLocalPaths) contains no elements after the ResolveAssemblyReferences target is completed.
   Actual: @(ReferenceCopyLocalPaths) contains the package reference DLL.

Here are the logs from a build using the repro steps: msbuild-netfx.zip

Notes:

• This does not repro in a netcore or netstandard project.
• I'm not sure if this is the expected behavior. However, the VSSDK needs a way for users to specify that a DLL referenced from a PackageReference should not be included in a VSIX.

@rohit21agrawal you had some context here?

@AlexEyler you can achieve desired behavior by ExcludeAssets="runtime"
