Description

Running Type.TypeInitializer.Invoke() does not run the type initializer under net7, where it was under net6.

Reproduction Steps

Considering this code:

Console.WriteLine($"Before Test TypeInitializer");
typeof(Test).TypeInitializer.Invoke(null, null);
Console.WriteLine($"After Test TypeInitializer");

public static class Test
{
    static Test()
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Test: Type Initializer");
    }
}

Expected behavior

net6 shows this:

Before Test TypeInitializer
Test: Type Initializer
After Test TypeInitializer

Actual behavior

net7 shows this:

Before Test TypeInitializer
After Test TypeInitializer

Regression?

Yes

Known Workarounds

Use System.Runtime.CompilerServices.RuntimeHelpers.RunClassConstructor instead.

Configuration

net7 build: 58fa90b
