We must use the sdk manifest band when computing the path into sdk-manifests
to install workloads, otherwise they won't be found after installation.
This is a problem when building with .NET 6.0.301, because we want to install
into the sdk-manifests/6.0.300 directory, not sdk-manifests/6.0.301 directory.
In the FilterStaticFrameworks task:
* Convert Windows-style paths to Mac-style paths.
* Give a better error if a framework can't be found.
* Don't try to copy frameworks that don't exist on Windows to the Mac.
In the ExtractBindingLibrariesStep:
* Return a relative path to frameworks we've extracted to make things easier for
remote builds.
* In the _ComputeFrameworkFilesToPublish target, don't compute the source
directory for frameworks using RootDir + Directory, because some frameworks
may only exist on the mac, and RootDir + Directory will be a Windows path
when building remotely. Instead use 'Identity', which is a relative path and
will work on both Windows and Mac.

This has been bothering me for a while... the symptom is that the build just
hangs at the end. Curiously it's never happend on the bots, only locally.
1. It only happens when using parallel make. When using parallel make, make is
in a jobserver mode, where sub-makes are controlled using a pair of file
descriptors inherited by the sub-makes. A consequence of this algorithm is
that the controlling make process will wait until all inherited file
descriptors have been closed before it will realize that all its sub-makes
have finished.
2. 'dotnet pack' will build the corresponding project, and that might start a
background compiler server.
3. This background compiler server does not seem to close any file descriptors
it inherits.
4. The background compiler server does not necessarily exit by the time `make`
is done.
5. The result is that `make` things there are still sub-makes doing stuff,
because there are inherited file descriptors still open.
6. Killing the compiler server (in another terminal for instance) will make
make realize it's done (and the hang is resolved).
So I'm applying the last point: shutting down the compiler server after
packing all the .NET NuGets.

Attempts to push build asset information to Maestro started failing
recently:
D:\a\1\s\xamarin-macios\packages\microsoft.dotnet.arcade.sdk\6.0.0-beta.21212.6\tools\SdkTasks\PublishBuildAssets.proj(43,5): error MSB4062: The "PushMetadataToBuildAssetRegistry" task could not be loaded from the assembly C:\Users\VssAdministrator\.nuget\packages\microsoft.dotnet.maestro.tasks\1.1.0-beta.20570.1\tools\netcoreapp3.1\Microsoft.DotNet.Maestro.Tasks.dll.

The system cannot find the path specified.
Commit a1d0b6eb looks like it may have broken this, as it changed the
`globalPackagesFolder` used for NuGet packages across the repo.
Looking at [PublishBuildAssets.proj][0] we should be able to set the
`$(NuGetPackageRoot)` property to the new `globalPackagesFolder` value,
fixing attempts to load `Microsoft.DotNet.Maestro.Tasks.dll`.

Make our local .NET the default .NET (in the root's global.json), and then if
a directory wants to use the system .NET, then that directory would have to
opt-in (using its own global.json).
This way we don't have to copy global.json/NuGet.config files around to run
tests with the correct .NET setup.
'BundledNETCorePlatformsPackageVersion' will be 7.0 when building with .NET 7
and using the 'net6.0-*' TFM, but we still need the package reference in that
case. So change the condition to go off TargetFrameworkVersion instead.
This also means that we shouldn't load the linker's output. Note that we need
to check _LoadLinkerOutput even if we've already disabled the linker, because
there may be linker output from a previous (connected) build, and we don't
want to load that.
Fixes https://devdiv.visualstudio.com/DevDiv/_workitems/edit/1542438.
* This is a potential mitigation for slower transition to native code when
exception marshalling is enabled (#14812).
* A minor modification was required in the linker, to make sure any modified
assemblies are saved.

Pick up --aot arguments in MtouchExtraArgs and pass them to the AOT compiler
when building a .NET project. This makes it possible to work around #14887 by
manually increasing the number of trampolines.
Ref: https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/issues/14887
Adjust our versioning scheme so that the NuGet version is
`Major.Minor.CommitDistance`. The previous scheme ("Major.Minor.<fixed-ish
version>") causes problems on branches producing stable builds, because each
new commit would end up with the same NuGet version, and we wouldn't be able
to push those to a NuGet feed because there might already be an existing
version there.
By using the commit distance in the NuGet version we ensure that every commit
has a different version.
There's no AOT compiler for macOS, so setting _RunAotCompiler causes problems
because if it's set, we try to find the AOT compiler, and because there is
none, the build fails.
So don't set '_RunAotCompiler' if 'MtouchInterpreter' is set (which also
indirectly means if 'UseInterpreter' is set) to avoid the problem altogether.
Resolves#14285
1. Make sure `libextension-dotnet.a` gets built, and with the `-DEXTENSION` flag.
2. Make sure `libextension-dotnet.a` gets included in the package alongside `libxamarin-dotnet.a`
3. At build time, make sure to link with the correct lib[tv]extension-dotnet.a library depending when we need to.
4. Add some tests.

When building a binding project, we need to execute bgen (and csc) on the mac. Figuring
out where these files are on the Mac is rather complicated from a remotely executed
task, so instead we execute a sub-build that computes these properties.
In legacy Xamarin this was accomplished by building the 'Xamarin.iOS.ObjCBinding.Common.props'
file using msbuild, and invoking a custom target that prints the property we're looking
for (the 'targetGetPropertyValue_*' targets).
For multiple reasons this approach doesn't work in .NET anymore (in particular it
seems that the 'Xamarin.iOS.ObjCBinding.Common.After.targets' file with the custom
'targetGetPropertyValue_*' targets is nowhere to be found, but logic has also moved
around in the .targets/.props files which makes just building the 'Xamarin.iOS.ObjCBinding.Common.props'
not work correctly since the properties we need wouldn't be set).
So I'm adding a new task that does a sub-build, using either msbuild or dotnet as
appropriate, to compute the properties we need. Instead of building the 'Xamarin.iOS.ObjCBinding.Common.props'
file, the task creates an actual binding project (an empty one), and executes the
new '_WriteRemoteGeneratorProperties' target in this binding project.
An additional advantage in this new task is that it will only execute one sub-build
where all the properties are computed (the previous approach executed one sub-msbuild
per property).
In order to keep code as similar as possible between legacy Xamarin and .NET, the
new task is being used for legacy Xamarin as well (and the old approach deleted).
This fixes building binding projects on Windows in .NET.
Ask ditto to thin native libraries and frameworks when copying them to the app
bundle to remove slices for architectures we're not building for.
Also add tests.

Our min OS target versions are different between legacy Xamarin and .NET
(former supports earlier versions). The list of versions in the Versions.plist
contain all the versions supported by legacy Xamarin, but that's not correct
for .NET, so don't list any version in Version.plist that's lower than the
minimum OS version we support for a given platform.
This enables Visual Studio to set a specific `RuntimeIdentifier` for each platform when building all target frameworks in a MAUI project.

Sometimes we want to copy the entire input directory from Windows to the Mac
when executing the Ditto task remotely, and sometimes we don't.
In particular we do not want to copy the input directory when the directory on
Windows is an incomplete mirror of what's on the Mac - one scenario being when
copying the app bundle to prepare for IPA creation. The .app directory on
Windows is not complete - all the files are there (maybe? not quite sure, but
that's beside the point here), but some may be empty, because when we only
care about the timestamp for a file, we'll create an empty file on Windows to
mirror the actual file on Mac. Copying this incomplete directory to the Mac,
overwriting the correct files there, will break things badly.
However, sometimes we're not mirroring a directory on Windows, but instead we
have directories as actual build input (for instances frameworks from NuGets),
and in that case we want to copy everything to the Mac.
So this PR adds a parameter to the Ditto task to optionally copy the directory
from Windows for remote builds, and we enable this behavior when we want it -
specifically when copying frameworks.
