DataContractSerialization doesn't work with TrimMode - link #42824

DataContractSerialization has some Reflection "shim" methods that the ILLinker can't see through. This causes critical methods to be trimmed and applications to fail. These methods were put in place in .NET Core 1.0 when the full Reflection API wasn't available.

The fix is to remove these "shim" Reflection APIs and use Reflection directly.

It would be nice to delete Globals.TypeOfObject and all other typeof caches from the Globals type.

Agreed. I've opened #42861 to do this.

@HongGit @StephenMolloy @mconnew - thoughts on this? I'd like to propose this to be backported to 5.0 since it blocks any usage of DataContractSerializer in trimmed applications like Blazor WASM.

@eerhardt I'm seeing failures building master across the board from this PR. There's a number of trim analysis warnings due to this PR.

eerhardt added a commit to eerhardt/runtime that referenced this pull request Sep 30, 2020
Changes dotnet#40691 and dotnet#42824 conflicted. One added a new ILLink suppress warnings file, while the other added more warnings. This causes the build to break.

The fix is to regenerate the suppressions file with the latest code.
