Pull request overview
Adds functional coverage to ensure C# union types flow correctly through MVC’s System.Text.Json input/output formatters and through Razor Pages handler binding + JsonResult responses, complementing the existing Minimal API union coverage.
Changes:
- Adds a new
FormatterWebSitecontroller + model types to exercise union binding/serialization scenarios via MVC. - Adds MVC functional tests for union request-body binding (input formatter) and union return-type serialization (output formatter).
- Adds a Razor Pages smoke test site page + functional test to validate unions behave similarly in Razor Pages.

Can we uncomment and skip the test instead ([Theory(Skip = "...")])?

A follow-up of #66951 and #67001.
This PR adds tests to verify MVC and Razor Pages flow of union processing works, and different union usage cases are covered. MVC is a lower priority than Minimal API, but since the support is cheap, I am proposing to add coverage for MVC / Razor Pages as well.
Closes #66545
