Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by locating the assembly-loading and YamlDotNet integration code, then trace how assemblies are currently loaded. Done means assemblies are loaded in an AssemblyLoadContext without colliding with other loaded versions; verify this with a scenario involving multiple YamlDotNet versions.
