Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos package ref folder lacks XML doc and is incompatible with reflection

See original GitHub issue

Describe the bug

Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.Client.xml exists only in the lib folder, but not in ref. This means there is absolutely no documentation shown inside VS.
Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.Client.dll inside ref is not an actual ref assembly (it’s just a copy of the same assembly from the lib folder). This means that it contains unresolvable references to other assemblies (e.g., Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.Core.dll) and is unusable by reflecation based tools (e.g., OrleansCodeGenerator).

Expected behavior ref folder contains an actual ref assembly (with no code and no invalid references to other assemblies) and also contains Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.Client.xml.

Linked the PR which removed the ref folder. +1 to not bring back ref folders.

If we’re not actually producing a ref assembly, we should be able to just eliminate the entire ref folder, and NuGet will add references to the assemblies in the lib folder.
