* Update to new linker custom steps API
* PR feedback
- Fix indentation
- Add Initialize(LinkContext) to ExceptionalMarkHandler
- Remove unnecessary ifdef
- Use IsSetter/IsGetter
- Use [0] instead of Single()
- Avoid allocating empty collections
* Note override issue
* Clean up comments
* Move `DynamicRegistrationSupported` change earlier, along with the
detection code.
This solve the issue that `ILLink` does a similar job _before_ we have
the chance to disable the dynamic registrar.
* ILLink does not support considering other attributes as `[Preserve]`
when it is itself preserved at the assembly-level.
This ignored test is checking that feature so it cannot be enabled
for `NET`
Added to known breaking changes https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/issues/8900
* Fix removal of the dynamic registrar on legacy
* Fix IntPtr size inlining

This means:
* Move the parts of the ApplyPreserveAttribute step that we don't need for.NET
into a new MobileApplyPreserveAttribute step, and have mtouch and mmp use
that step instead of the ApplyPreserveAttribute step.
* Copy ApplyPreserveAttributeBase into dotnet-linker from the upstream tuner
source (with minor modifications) so that our ApplyPreserveAttribute step
compiles.
* Create a DotNetSubStepDispatcher class that we're going to use as our
substep dispatcher, create an instance of it and insert it into the list of
linker steps.
* Also a workaround for the lack of LinkContext.GetAssemblies (): add a step
that collects all the assemblies and stores them in a list, so that we can
have our own GetAssemblies implementation.
I filed a linker issue to see if we can get LinkContext.GetAssemblies ()
exposed to us: https://github.com/mono/linker/issues/1455.
Fixes this startup crash with the linkall test:
