Fixes: #2500

Already covered by the explanation via @JamieMagee - this needs to be done so we can move forward with the framework and innovate using the new APIs and assemblies.

Highlights from the issue description:

.NET Framework 4.6 (and 4.6.1) went out of support on April 26, 2022. Continuing to publish Octokit for this target adds a support burden.

.NET standard 2.0 covers .NET Framework 4.6.2 already.

Supporting a single target framework, .NET standard 2.0, would simplify maintenance of this project while supporting all target frameworks currently supported upstream.

For reference, these are the supported versions going forward

.NET implementation Version support
.NET and .NET Core 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, 3.0, 3.1, 5.0, 6.0
.NET Framework  4.6.1 2, 4.6.2, 4.7, 4.7.1, 4.7.2, 4.8

This addressed a compiler warning - I wanted to ensure the output was as clean as possible and, therefore, clean a little bit of the house regardless of whether it was a related change or not.

These two tests were there to test the obsolete method, which technically does still work. The previous 2 tests in the file check the newer way of doing it, so if we don't want the warnings it would be better to get rid of those two tests (ending Obsolete) entirely 👍

Great point. I'm thinking we also opt to remove the constructor as well given we are making a breaking change with this change set - and I can note it in the release.

I think there are some usages of these constants in the code, should these be removed/tidied as well as part of this?

For example HAS_ENVIRONMENT has been removed entirely but is present/used in Connection.cs.

Good highlight. I can clean these up as well while I am in there.

Scratch that. There are implementations in the other projects that I'd like to take a closer look at - this is feeling like a separate changeset. I'm going to hold off so that we can do this separately - #2526
