* Ship mlaunch in the iOS, tvOS and watchOS NuGets. It should probably go into
a separate NuGet (to avoid shipping the same mlaunch executable in three different
packages), but that can be done at a later stage.
* Add a GetMlaunchArguments task that computes the mlaunch arguments to install
or launch an app in either the simulator or on device.
* Implement the MSBuild logic to make the Run target (provided by .NET) launch
mlaunch (for iOS, tvOS and watchOS) or the built app (for macOS). This is done
by setting the RunCommand and RunArguments properties (which the Run target uses)
to the correct values.
Ideally I'd would make 'dotnet run' work too, but that runs into a different problem which
I haven't figured out yet:
A fatal error was encountered. The library 'libhostpolicy.dylib' required to execute the application was not found in '/Users/rolf/work/maccore/onedotnet/xamarin-macios/tests/dotnet/MySingleView/bin/Debug/net5.0-ios/ios-x64/'.
Failed to run as a self-contained app.
- The application was run as a self-contained app because '/Users/rolf/work/maccore/onedotnet/xamarin-macios/tests/dotnet/MySingleView/bin/Debug/net5.0-ios/ios-x64/MySingleView.runtimeconfig.json' did not specify a framework.
- If this should be a framework-dependent app, specify the appropriate framework in '/Users/rolf/work/maccore/onedotnet/xamarin-macios/tests/dotnet/MySingleView/bin/Debug/net5.0-ios/ios-x64/MySingleView.runtimeconfig.json'.
That's for a different pull request though.
