Microsoft.Build.RunVSTest fails on multi-targeting test projects

[AArnott]

When a test project defines the TargetFrameworks msbuild property instead of the singular TargetFramework property, msbuild /t:test fails when invoking the RunVSTestTask task because all its inputs are empty.

MSBuild version 17.12.0-preview-24412-02+0716e1c2a for .NET Framework

Workaround

Specify /p:TargetFramework=net6.0 at the command line and get just one TF tested.
