Originally created in dotnet/templating#4394

If you create a new project in a solution that uses file-scoped namespaces the classes created by the project template should also use file-scoped namespaces.
Similar to dotnet/templating#3930, which only handled new item templates (which work fine).

Repro steps:

1. Create a new repository/solution with an EditorConfig file. Make sure the EditorConfig file contains csharp_style_namespace_declarations = file_scoped:suggestion.
2. Create a new project targeting . NET6 that contains at least one class with a namespace (e.g. class library or WPF application).
3. See that the namespace in the generated class file uses the old block scoped style and that IDE0161 "Convert to file-scoped namespace" is triggered immediately.

Tested with Visual Studio 2022 17.0.6 and Version 17.2.0 Preview 1.0 [32130.36.main]
