New behavior

This was actually merged in VS17.3.p2.

Unbound generic types, such as List<> can be used in nameof expressions. The nameof(List<>) expression evaluates to List.

• Update the nameof page.

Note that the merge PR didn't add any new error codes. There's no corresponding issue for updating compiler errors and messages.
