[tests][intro] Run availability tests on properties too (#10763)
and not just methods even if we are generating them on both [1]

That spotted a single error inside `src/Security/SslContext.cs`
which this PR also fix. IOW there's no point in saying the API
was (a long time ago) available since our code to call it was
removed.

[1] which is something we should not need to do on .net since
* the compiler-based tooling does not need it on the getter/setter
* other tools needs to be updated (so it won't break any existing
  use case)

Introspection Tests

Introspection tests are executed on target (both simulator and device for iOS) or a specific version of OSX. The application proceed to analyze itself using:

  • System.Reflection for managed code; and
  • the ObjectiveC runtime library for native code

and compare the results. E.g. if using .NET reflection it can see a binding for a NSBundle type then it should be able to find a native NSBundle type using the ObjC runtime functions. Otherwise an error is raised...

Since the application analyze itself it must contains everything we wish to test. That's why the introspection tests needs to be built with the managed linker disable, i.e. "Don't link".

Pros

  • The tests always tell the truth, which can differ from documentation or header files;

Cons

  • Incomplete - Not everything is encoded in the metadata / executable;
  • Too complete - Not every truth is good to be known (or published), which requires creating special cases in the tests
