Exposing `ExitCodes` class

[smdn]

Summary

Please expose Microsoft.Testing.Platform.Helpers.ExitCodes class.

Background and Motivation

I am currently writing code to test the MTP extension, and I am utilizing the return value of ITestApplication.RunAsync (=exit code) as the test result.
The values and meanings of MTP exit codes are documented, but I would like Microsoft.Testing.Platform.Helpers.ExitCodes class to be exposed so that it can be used in my code as well.

For example, I want to use ExitCodes in test code like the following:

 [Test] // NUnit test case
 public async Task TestMyMTPExtension()
 {
-  const int ZeroTestsExitCode = 8;
 
   var applicationBuilder = await TestApplication.CreateBuilderAsync(...);
 
   applicationBuilder.AddMyExtensionProvider(); // Add my MTP extension to be tested
 
   var application = await applicationBuilder.BuildAsync();
 
   Assert.That(
     await application.RunAsync(),
-    Is.EqualTo(ZeroTestsExitCode),
+    Is.EqualTo(ExitCodes.ZeroTests),
     "Test application must exit without any errors."
   );
 }

Proposed Feature

Make Microsoft.Testing.Platform.Helpers.ExitCodes public.
The namespace likely needs to be changed to a more appropriate one.

Alternative Designs

Instead of exposing ExitCodes, add an equivalent enum type.

Hello,

This could be added as a future plan, however in the meantime we don't plan on doing it.

Thanks for the reply.

Given that RunAsync() returns an int with specific semantics, it would be preferable for the code to allow direct association between the value and its meaning.
It would be appreciated if support for this could be considered in a future version.
