Console window doesn't show an informative compilation error when the "in" method parameter modifier is used in the method call
How to reproduce:
1. Open the attached project
2. Open the Console window
Expected result: Console window shows the specific compiler error
Actual result: Console window shows "Microsoft (R) Visual C# Compiler version 2.9.1.65535 (9d34608e)" message which doesn't specify the compiler error
Reproducible with: 2018.4.20f1, 2019.3.8f1, 2020.1.0b3, 2020.2.0a5
Could not test with: 2017.4.39f1 and earlier ('readonly references' is not available in C# 6)
Notes:
-This was reproducible using JetBrains Rider
-Removing the "in" parameter modifier at line 11 of "MyBehaviourScript.cs" and recompiling solves the issue

- Documentation link icons' are not aligned in he "Recommendation" tab
- "Game Specifications" section becomes blank, and users get "ArgumentException: Cannot unschedule unknown scheduled function" during the "Game Specification" selection when the "Multiplayer Center" window is docked
Resolution Note:
The fix involves updating the C# compiler, or at least revamp the whole C# compiler message parsing system (if it is ok to just show an error).
Both are non-trivial change with too much risk to do.
