Merged PR 4490: eng | Remove netstandard from production pipeline

- Complementary code change of PR [#2386](#2386).
- This should be merged after merging the related PR to remove support of .NET Standard in the production pipeline.
- The first commit has the related PR's changes(review them on GH).
- After having merged the related GH PR and updating the CI pipeline, I'll sync with this PR to unify the changes and get passed the pipeline.
- Only the YAML changes under the `eng` folder should be reviewed (ignore the other changes as they are identical to the GH).
- Introduced `oneBranchType` parameter to switch between **Official** and **NonOfficial** templates

- [new sample run](https://dev.azure.com/SqlClientDrivers/ADO.Net/_build/results?buildId=86908&view=results)
