1. Added .NET 8 support

1.1 Aligned package versions with respective targets (.NET 6, netstandard2.0, .NET 8.0)
1.2 Removed .NET 7.0 target
1.3 Removed direct targets on the library for .NET Framework and only left netstandard2.0 because of dependencies, netstandard2.0 reference required anyways and there is no point to split targets on the library itself.
2. StyleCop is deprecated
2.1 Removed StyleCop
2.2 Added Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.NetAnalyzers
2.3 Fixed nullable references issues and other minor issues
3. Moved packages for unit tests out of .props file
4. Upgraded xUnit
4.1 Fixed xUnit warnings
5. Upgraded the rest of packages in unit tests
