Serialization Debugger does not handle SerializeField attribute applied to backing-field of auto properties

[Sergey Tiron]

For auto properties like

[field: SerializeField] public int Value { get; private set; }

Serialization Debugger shows message “The auto property 'Value' is skipped by Unity because Unity does not serialize properties.“ which is not true. Unity can handle this kind of serialization with C# 7 field-targeted attributes.

Technically it's true since the attribute is applied to the backing field and that's serialized and not the property, but I agree it would be nice to have another message reflecting this. I'll mark this as a serialization debugger improvement, maybe there's a better, clearer way to communicate this.
