SourceLink does not work for strongly typed resources file (SR.cs)

See original GitHub issue

SourceLink obviously can’t link to generated files - and indeed it doesn’t.

This is fine and inevitable but is forever going to be noise when we validate sourcelink in our PDB’s.

Not a big deal but @tmat is there (eg) some flag we should pass to embed into the PDB somehow the knowledge that sourcelink will not work for SR.cs, that would suppress such errors?

@tmat Setting this property EmbedUntrackedSources to true solves our problem and doesnot slow down significantly. I was wondering if there is a way to only embed untracked files in specific directory ? eg untracked files in only the artifacts folder. I am just worried that people may be able to use it to add non-generated files as well and we wont be able to detect the sourcelink failure
