What are you seeing?

MS Build error:

Possible reasons for this include:
    * You misspelled a built-in dotnet command.
    * You intended to execute a .NET program, but dotnet---roll-forward does not exist.
  Could not execute because the specified command or file was not found.
    * You intended to run a global tool, but a dotnet-prefixed executable with this name could not be found on the PATH.
C:\Users\user\.nuget\packages\gitversion.msbuild\6.0.1\tools\GitVersion.MsBuild.targets(18,9): error MSB3073: The command "dotnet --roll-forward Major "C:\Users\user\.nuget\packages\gitversion.msbuild\6.0.1\tools\gitversion.dll" "C:\Projects\a\b\c"  -output file -outputfile "obj\gitversion.json"" exited with code 1. [C:\Projects\a\b\c\Project.csproj]

What is expected?

The path to gitversion.dll should be resolved to:

C:\Users\user\.nuget\packages\gitversion.msbuild\6.0.1\tools\net8.0\gitversion.dll

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create an empty C# project (e.g. minimal Hello World console app):

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Web">

  <ItemGroup>
    <PackageReference Include="GitVersion.MsBuild" Version="6.0.1">
      <PrivateAssets>all</PrivateAssets>
    </PackageReference>
  </ItemGroup>

  <PropertyGroup>
    <OutputType>Exe</OutputType>
    <TargetFramework>net8.0</TargetFramework>
    <Nullable>enable</Nullable>
    <ImplicitUsings>enable</ImplicitUsings>
    <!-- that doesn't work either:  -->
    <!-- <GitVersionTargetFramework>net8.0</GitVersionTargetFramework> -->
  </PropertyGroup>

</Project>

2. Create GIT repo and build the Project (using dotnet CLI):
   dotnet build

3. Error

Possible reasons for this include:
    * You misspelled a built-in dotnet command.
    * You intended to execute a .NET program, but dotnet---roll-forward does not exist.
  Could not execute because the specified command or file was not found.
    * You intended to run a global tool, but a dotnet-prefixed executable with this name could not be found on the PATH.

[C:\Projects\a\b\c\Project.csproj]`

Notes:
The TargetFramework property is not defined at this point of time and should be moved to GitVersion.MsBuild.targets instead.
https://github.com/GitTools/GitVersion/blob/6.0.1/src/GitVersion.MsBuild/msbuild/tools/GitVersion.MsBuild.props#L20

Version 6.0.0 does work, version 6.0.1 does not work.
