Unable to resolve type 'Orleans.Serialization.Serializers.IValueSerializer1[Orleans.Serialization.Codecs.ImmutableArraySurrogate1[Orleans.Metadata.GrainManifest]]'

[dmitrig89]

Similar to issue #132

When running the Microsoft Orleans client, and using StashBox, I'm getting the following error:

Unable to resolve service for type 'Orleans.Serialization.Serializers.IValueSerializer`1[Orleans.Serialization.Codecs.ImmutableArraySurrogate`1[Orleans.Metadata.GrainManifest]]' while attempting to activate 'Orleans.Serialization.Codecs.ImmutableArrayCodec`1[Orleans.Metadata.GrainManifest]'

The following packages were used:

Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting Version=7.0.1
Microsoft.Orleans.Client Version=7.1.1
Stashbox.Extensions.Hosting Version=4.6.1

To reproduce the issue, simply run an Orleans client (with or without a server running, this issue will happen anyway):

using Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting;

await Host.CreateDefaultBuilder(args)
    .UseStashbox()
    .UseOrleansClient(siloBuilder =>
    {
        siloBuilder.UseLocalhostClustering(); ;
    })
    .RunConsoleAsync();

If we run without StashBox, no such error appears:

using Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting;

await Host.CreateDefaultBuilder(args)
    .UseOrleansClient(siloBuilder =>
    {
        siloBuilder.UseLocalhostClustering(); ;
    })
    .RunConsoleAsync();

This is happening because the ImmutableArraySurrogate is a struct and therefore a value type.
It will not have a public parameterless constructor.
