Subject: [PATCH] build: declare CPM in Directory.Build.props for Scorecard
 detection

Enabling Central Package Management in Directory.Packages.props (#94, #95) did
not move Scorecard's Pinned-Dependencies check off 7: the v5.3.0 run still
reported "0/2 nugetCommand dependencies pinned" with only the base remediation
text, i.e. its NuGet check evaluated CPM as disabled.

Root cause (internal/dotnet/properties/properties.go): the check reads every
Directory.*.props file and keeps only the LAST one's config when deciding whether
CPM is enabled. This repo also has Directory.Build.props, which carries no
ManagePackageVersionsCentrally element; read after Directory.Packages.props, it
overwrites the "enabled" verdict with "disabled".

Declare ManagePackageVersionsCentrally=true in Directory.Build.props as well.
Since it has no <PackageVersion>, the empty version set trivially satisfies the
"all versions are fixed" rule, so the restore is credited as pinned. MSBuild
behaviour is unchanged (redundant true; FloorCheck still opts out in its csproj);
restore + build + 598 tests stay green.

+    Central Package Management is configured in Directory.Packages.props (ManagePackageVersionsCentrally plus
+    the <PackageVersion> list). The property is repeated here for a TOOLING reason, not an MSBuild one:
+    OpenSSF Scorecard's Pinned-Dependencies check inspects every Directory.*.props file and keeps only the
+    LAST one it reads when deciding whether CPM is enabled (it overwrites its config per file). This file is
+    read after Directory.Packages.props and carries no <PackageVersion>, so without the property here Scorecard
+    concludes "CPM disabled" and reports the solution's `dotnet restore` as an unpinned nugetCommand — capping
+    the check at 7. Declaring it here makes the winning file report CPM enabled; its empty version set trivially
+    satisfies Scorecard's "all versions are fixed" rule, so the restore counts as pinned. Redundant for MSBuild
+    (same value as Directory.Packages.props); FloorCheck still overrides it to false in its own project file.
