Add .NET samples

[tirth]

Hi - here's a first pass at some .NET samples.

I've tried to show the same functionality as the existing ones, let me know what you think!

Heya, @tirth !

I'm not much of a .NET programmer at all, but would be happy to have C# samples. I'll look into someone giving this a proper review, but just glancing at them: these seem to use an external dependency on a JMAP client, which I think nothing else in the repository does, and so those samples show building JMAP from whole cloth, rather than from client libraries. We'll have to think about what's best, generally speaking!

Hi @rjbs!

Yup I totally see your point, and I wasn't quite sure how to approach that myself, so happy to think it through.

The referenced JMAP library is one that I've just started developing. It provides a very thin layer of strongly-typed C# goodness for JMAP, via some data model classes and JSON converters.

It also builds higher level helper methods on top of the raw request-response functionality, which I included as an extra for the "top ten" example.

I could look at including the required code with the sample project directly, akin to the "tiny_jmap" clients in some of the other examples, but that would pretty much just include all the JmapNet files, as there's not much more to it!

@rjbs the Python client does require an external dependency as written: https://github.com/fastmail/JMAP-Samples/blob/main/python3/requirements.txt

Yes, there are a few external requirements in the sample code, but none is on a JMAP client. My point was "this shows how to implement JMAP requests, not how to use someone else's implementation.
