Description
(This is my first ever public issue, so please be gentle.)
I was trying to run a .NET 9 project that used dotnet-svcutil.xmlserializer
version 8.0.0-preview1.24067.4
and getting some errors due to .NET version mismatch:

I downloaded the source for WCF and was able to change the references in the .csproj
and related files to .NET 9 (I had to update the .dotnet
folder as well to use the appropriate version), and I got it to successfully compile, test, and package. I tested the package in a .NET 9 console app that consumed a WCF service and was able to use the new package to successfully generate the DLL:

The documentation states that any new features need to start with creating an issue. How can I submit a PR to get a new package created for .NET 9?
