Description

Watch this: awaitinterpolation

When you have await in a non-async method, then string interpolations on the same line don't parse correctly!

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the VB.NET parser's handling of string interpolation when an await expression is present in a non async method. Look at the parsing code for interpolated strings and how it interacts with async detection.
