Roll forward global tools

See original GitHub issue

Hi, thanks so much again for these fabulous tools! In case you don’t remember, I use NetCoreBeauty v1 as part of my tool GameBundle.

Unfortunately, all of the global tools attached to this project don’t have the RollForward directive, which means that users have to have the exact version of .NET installed that the tool was built with to use it. In most cases, this is unnecessary, as newer versions are usually backwards-compatible for tool execution.

I recently updated GameBundle to include this feature, but essentially all you have to do is add this to your project file:

<RollForward>Major</RollForward>

For more info, I used the official documentation from here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/project-sdk/msbuild-props#rollforward

Thanks so much, and I hope you consider adding this directive to the v1 global tool as well!
