Workaround to use Azure SDK with RC2. (at least Storage)

[Bartmax]

For people interested on using Azure SDK while there isn't a compatible version, I found a workaround. Is about using imports and bring a new version of the XmlSerializer as follows:

"dependencies":{
    "WindowsAzure.Storage": "7.0.1-preview",
    "System.Xml.XmlSerializer": "4.0.11-rc2-24027"
},
 "netcoreapp1.0": {
      "imports": [
        "dotnet5.6",
        "dnxcore50",
        "portable-net45+win8"
      ],

this works as standalone and portable in my minor testing. I can upload and access files. That's it. Didn't try anything else, so no guarantees. works on my machine ™

Nice, do you know if we can do the same for all non compatible libraries aswell?

All? No, it depends on what frameworks a package supports?
