Cecil cannot save an assembly more than once without reloading its
debugging symbols. There was code for this, in the special case where
an assembly could be saved more than once. However the order of the
operations changed and the code to reload symbols was now located too
late.

So that there can be multiple caches in the same process (which we'll have
once mtouch can compile extensions and the container app in the same process).
* [mtouch] Remove most static state and put it on an instance.
Remove most static state, and put it on an instance (of Application) instead.
Soon we'll build multiple apps (app extensions) in the same process, and we
need to make sure we're not inadvertedly (and incorrectly) sharing state
between apps, so remove as much static state as possible to avoid any
problems.
* [mtouch] Rename GetIsUsingClang -> IsUsingClang.
Managed exception marshaling interferes with the debugger, because it adds
exception handlers to executing code, which makes the Mono runtime think an
exception is handled when logically it's not (although technically it is).
The consequence is that the IDEs will only be notified when we re-throw the
exception after catching it, making it impossible for the IDEs to stop when
the exception is thrown (they will instead stop when we re-throw the
exception).
So disable managed exception marshaling (unless the user changed the default
behavior) when a debugger is attached.
This is the same behavior as Xamarin.Android.
