ROSLYN.DESIGN.CA1067 : Override Object.Equals(object) when implementing IEquatable<T> (C#)

See Roslyn-Detected C# Warning Classes for more information.

Summary

When a type T implements the interface IEquatable<T>, it suggests to a user who sees a call to the Equals method in source code that an instance of the type can be equated with an instance of any other type. The user might be confused if their attempt to equate the type with an instance of another type fails to compile. This violates the "principle of least surprise".

This check corresponds to Roslyn rule CA1067. For full rule details, see the Microsoft website: CA1067.
