If you give mtouch/mmp a linker xml file with bad input for
example a Xamarin.iOS app and the linker.xml has a reference
to Xamarin.Mac instead of X.I.dll i.e.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<linker>
<assembly fullname="Xamarin.Mac">
<type fullname="ObjCRuntime.Constants"/>
</assembly>
</linker>
You will get a not so helpful generic error
MT2001 Could not link assemblies. Reason: Failed to process XML description: <unspecified>
It seems that when you use a xml file for linker you get a
`XmlResolutionException` from cecil when it fails to resolve
and the better error comes from the inner exception so we use
that instead.
New error output for XmlResolutionException:
MT2017: Could not process XML description: Failed to resolve assembly: 'Xamarin.Mac, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'
The old `legacy` option will now be reported as a warning.
That's by design an warning would require manually editing the .csproj
file (when the UI gets removed, as planned, from the IDE).
This is part of
https://trello.com/c/SrgU38DN/647-only-ship-support-appletls
Note: The BCL changes will happen in later stages.
The MT2001 error is a general, something went bad, in the linker code
base. The stack trace is often enough to track down issues but in some
cases it would be easier to ask customers for a specific assembly
(rather than their complete project) to investigate an issue.
Example:
error MT2103: Binding Optimizer failed processing `System.Void GoogleConversionTracking.Unified.GoogleConversionPing::.ctor()`.
--- inner exception

Right now the MT2001 would only include the inner exception, which does
not include any clue to which assembly caused the exception.
Note: The same pattern to be applied to other BaseSubStep subclasses in
separate commits.

- Linking breaks extensions for as long as we have the "extensions must be use static registrar" hack.
- So let's ignore it with a warning. Better that random brokeness.

* [XM] Teach XM's mmp tool to handle read only assemblies/native libs
- https://bugzilla.xamarin.com/show_bug.cgi?id=41037
- mmp should also promote any install_name_tool errors to "real" errors
* Bump maccore
It is apparently common to have references to assemblies that can't
be resolved when building apps with the linker disabled, so we need
to support that.
So add a custom reference loading step that only shows a warning
for unresolvable assemblies.
Also bump maccore to add a test.
