Ability to convert constructors directly into delegate types.

[itsBuggingMe]

It's very useful to convert from method groups directly into delegate types.
For example:

Func<string, int> parseInt = int.Parse;
int[] nums = strings.Select(int.Parse).ToArray();

It would also make sense to be able to do the same for constructors:

// maybe something like this:
Func<Bar, Foo> ctor1 = new Foo;
Func<Bar, Foo> ctor2 = Foo::new;
Func<Bar, Foo> ctor3 = Foo.new;

record Foo(int Bar);

A workaround is to just make a lambda that calls the method, e.g. bar => new Foo(bar), but this is comparatively more verbose and an extra bit of indirection.

This would be especially nice for serialization scenarios when you are creating delegates for object creation, such as in JsonTypeInfo, or just when populating/initialising a large number of items.
