Adds global.json and updates build workflow

Adds a global.json file to specify the .NET SDK version and rollForward policy, ensuring consistent builds across different environments.

Updates the build workflow to utilize the global.json file for .NET SDK installation, instead of relying on a fixed .NET version.

Cleans up the .gitignore file by removing redundant and outdated entries, and adds entries for JetBrains Rider and JustCode.
Additionally, the copyright notice is updated to include the current year.
