System.Text.Json serialization compile-time generator

[xperiandri]

In order to have parity with C# https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/try-the-new-system-text-json-source-generator/ it would be nice to have the same compile-time serialization logic generation for F#.

Describe the solution you'd like

Maybe a type provider could help?

Describe alternatives you've considered

Use separate C# project for such generators invocation

This is what you're looking for fsharp/fslang-suggestions#864.

Probably https://github.com/fsharp/fslang-design/blob/main/RFCs/FS-1023-type-providers-generate-types-from-types.md is more suitable

But that could be an option

From my experience, I used SwaggerProvider and FSharp.Data.GraphQL.Client but move to Snowflaqe and Hawaii because type providers do not allow you to use FsAst or plain F# sources and create unions and records. If those issues will be resolved type providers became in favor again.
