Code inspection: Convert property into auto-property (when possible)

This inspection reports a property with a trivial backing field that can be replaced with an auto-property, because the getter and setter only read from and write to the same field, without extra logic.

Example

                class A
                {
                    int p;
                    public int P
                    {
                        get { return p; }
                        set { p = value; }
                    }
                }
            

                class A
                {
                    public int P { get; set; }
                }
            

Quick-fix

Convert the property to an auto-property and remove the backing field.
