Introduce an ASP.NET project to the Sample projects

[mindball]

Motivation:
I've been looking at the different serialization options available on the documentation page and was wondering if you would be interested in a sample project that demonstrates their usages in ASP.NET.

As there is currently no support for the System.Text converter, that is the default for the minimal-api style project, I was thinking of starting with a basic Controllers API, which we would hopefully extend in the future.

In terms of methods, I was thinking of an API similar to the UnitConverter or maybe a "calculator-type" thing that uses one of the standard operations.

In addition, at work, we've been using some extensions that provide the necessary OpenAPI metadata, such that the API is nicely formatted in Swagger, that can also be added later.

Hi, sure!
If you wanna build one, we can absolutely add it to the samples folder.

@angularsen Full disclosure, I work with @mindball and pitched him the idea as a good-starting-issue.

Do you think we want this in v5 or directly in v6? I kinda lean towards the latter, as we haven't ported #1479 - the introduction of a new package in the SDK-style project is going to propagate to the main Directory.packages..

I'm living in the v6 world, it's 2025, what is this v5 you guys keep talking about? 😂 Seriously though, as soon as your base units and possibly the fractions PR has landed, we should be nearing a release or at least beta/stabilization, and should merge into master and make a maintenance release/v5 branch.

It usually takes me at least 3-4 months to adjust...

I noticed this issue was closed due to inactivity, but I’ve been working on this topic in my public repository: ASP.Net.UnitsNetSerializationExamples. I’ve been progressing on this in my spare time over weekends, which is why it took longer. However, I’m close to finishing and will have it ready as soon as possible.

No problem, no rush on our end, so just take your time 😃
