Redgate edit

The contents of this folder were taken from this repo at this commit.

We have removed classes and methods we do not use, and assimilated these classes into our own assemblies for two reasons:

• firstly, the originating repo looks alright for the moment, but it's very under-used, and might go weird in future,
• secondly, the Credential Management Windows API is very stable, so we're unlikely to need constant bleeding-edge updates.

Publishing a package

This project automatically builds, signs, packages and pushes to the RedGate NuGet reprository on pushes to the default branch using the ci-pipeline GitHub workflow.
