Also stop using `mdb` as the name for debug symbols and remove
> static MdbReader mdb_reader;
since we're not mkbundl'ing mtouch anymore.
Related to https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/pull/2002 for mmp
* [mtouch] Only iOS has version 8 (and earlier OS versions that don't support frameworks).
* [mtouch] Update logging to be less confusing when logging about WatchKit extensions.
* [mtouch] Don't compile P/Invoke wrappers for extensions that are sharing code.
The container app already has the P/Invoke wrappers.
* Use Visual Studio instead of Xamarin Studio.
* VS doesn't have mdtool, it has vstool.
Also there's no need to manually invoke the mdtool.exe executable anymore
(which we did because the mdtool executable had a min macOS version of 10.9,
and we used to build tests on older macOS versions [1]), since now we only run
tests on older macOS versions, we don't build those tests there.

We want to copy the aot data for both the 32-bit and the 64-bit versions of an
assembly even if the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the assembly are identical.

- Before this mmp was not adding -framework, -weak_framework consistently on non-static registrar use cases
- GatherFrameworks was previously not ported from mtouch, and did not work as DeploymentTarget was unset in mmp
- Added verbose prints so users can determine why various framework linkages are added
- Fixed an issue where duplicate were being added due to HandleFramework shoving args by hand
- Tested with auto test and https://github.com/chamons/xm-version-regression-test manual test
Previously we copied any equivalent .dylib and ran install_name_tool on the
library to change the library id to make it a framework.
Unfortunately this does not work when the library contains bitcode, because
bitcode embeds linker flags (-install_name for instance), and
install_name_tool does not change those linker flags.
This means that we need to create frameworks by linking with the proper
arguments, since it's much more difficult to fixup the embedded bitcode linker
flags as well.
So change how be build Mono.framework, Xamarin.framework, and any frameworks
built from assemblies to:
* Always link instead of fixup a dylib. For Mono.framework this means
extracting all the object files from libmonosgen-2.0.a and linking those,
for Xamarin.framework this means linking the object files we've already
built.
* Make sure the library is correctly named when linked (once again: bitcode
contains embedded linker flags, so renaming the executable later breaks
stuff as well).
I've also extracted the logic that creates Mono.framework from
libmonosgen-2.0.a to a separate shell script, to deduplicate this logic.
This required a minor change in the mono builds: we need the Mono.framework
when building the `all` target, so make sure that happens.

* [builds] Improve mono/llvm dependencies.
* Create a list of all the files in the mono and llvm repositories, and save
these lists as a Make variable (in a generated Makefile - .deps.*.mk). We
don't list _all_ the files in each repository, because there are quite a few
(55k for mono), and Make measurably takes a while to check all of them, so
try to limit it to a sane subset, without risking missing changes to files
that actually matters.
* Always create stamp files when we're done with mono builds.
* Modify the mono/llvm builds to depend on all the files in their
repositories.
* Explicitly list the corresponding .stamp-build-* files as dependencies for
various files that are produced by the mono builds, so that make knows how
to build these files.
* Rewrite the *-facade-check targets to depend on the corresponding
*_BCL_TARGETS, so that we can avoid running a submake to the same Makefile
to execute the facade checks.
It now takes a little while (less than a second on my machine, which is
fine) for make to list all dependencies and get their timestamps, but if
executing multiple submakes this adds up to a multi-second timewaste.
So avoid the timewaste by not doing submakes, but instead use dependencies
to enforce the required target execution ordering.
* Don't depend on nicely named intermediate targets, since won't prevent
rebuilds:
build-cross64: setup-cross64
Since the `setup-cross64` file doesn't exist, `build-cross64` will always
execute. Instead depend on the stamp file:
build-cross64: .stamp-configure-cross64
And now `build-cross64` will only rebuild if needed.
* Don't try to list all intermediate files as .SECONDARY dependencies, instead
list none at all, which works as if all files were listed as dependencies.
* Some targets had to move later in the file, since variables used in dependencies:
foo: $(VARIABLE)
must be defined before that point in the file, as opposed to variables used in recipes:
foo:
$(MAKE) $(VARIABLE)
can be defined anywhere in the Makefile.
* Simplify the targets that sign assemblies significantly.
There are a few end results:
* It's now possible to do `make install`, without doing `make all` first. This
might seem weird, but that also ensures the more common `make all install`
works properly.
* Remakes (without any mono/llvm changes) in build/ are much faster, because
we now won't recurse into every mono build:
$ time make all -C builds/ -j8
[...]
real 0m1.873s
This even means that we might be able to make it a habit to remake in the
root directory, which doesn't take forever now:
$ time make all -j8
[...]
real 0m4.521s
Unfortunately adding `make install` to the mix still does some useless
stuff, and it ends up taking ~30 seconds to complete a full build:
$ time make all install -j8
[...]
real 0m32.542s
* [msbuild] Don't verify the xml syntax of targets files unless the files change.
* [build] Don't depend on installed files.
Don't depend on installed files, because that causes a rebuild when installing
to a different directory (i.e. package creation).
* Bump maccore to get build improvements.
Rebuilds are now very fast:
$ make all install -j8
$ time make all install -j8
real 0m5.735s
Less than 6s to figure out that nothing needs to be done.
And strangely flushing the disk cache doesn't make it much slower:
$ sudo purge
$ time make all install -j8
real 0m7.309s
Which probably means that Make mostly reads file metadata, and not actual file
contents (which is good).
This fixes a file sharing exception:
> MTOUCH: error MT1009: Could not copy the assembly '[...]/msbuild/tests/MyActionExtension/bin/iPhone/Debug/MyActionExtension.dll' to '[...]/msbuild/tests/MyTabbedApplication/obj/iPhone/Debug/mtouch-cache/32/Link/MyActionExtension.dll': Sharing violation on path [...]/msbuild/tests/MyActionExtension/bin/iPhone/Debug/MyActionExtension.pdb
This should stop errors like below to happen on wrench
```
Xamarin.Bundler.MonoMacException: The type 'AVFoundation.IAVContentKeyRecipient' (used as a parameter in AVFoundation.AVContentKeySession.Add) is not available in macOS 10.12.2 (it was introduced in macOS 10.12.4). Please build with a newer macOS SDK (usually done by using the most recent version of Xcode).
```
A fix (thanks Rolf!) in how we do SDK version checks is needed
because for some reason `new Version (3, 2, 0)` isn't the same to
`new Version (3, 2)` and we end up with a MT4134 when building the
watchOS static registrar.
When using debug simulator we don't generate main.m so we were not passing the gc options.
The MONO_GC_PARAMS variable is not in app.EnvironmentVariables (which only contains environment variables passed to mtouch using --setenv), which is why the above condition does not trigger.
No frameworks should be bundled in WatchKit 1 extensions, they should be
bundled in the container (iOS) app.
This broke when merging the equivalent fix for master into the framework-sdk
branch (i.e. a broken merge).
