Steps to Reproduce

  1. Copy the v8.1 framework to v99.99.

  2. Edit v99.99\AndroidApiInfo.xml, and set <Id/> to "Z", set <Level/> to 99, set <Version/> to v99.99, and <Stable/> to False:

    Z 99 Z v99.99 False
  3. Copy $(AndroidSdkDirectory)\platforms\android-27 to $(AndroidSdkDirectory)\platforms\android-Z.

  4. Update an new or existing project so that $(TargetFrameworkVersion)=v99.99.

Alternatively, a recent build from master which has early P preview support can be used.

Expected Behavior

Project compiles against preview bindings and preview platform SDK.

Actual Behavior

Project fails with:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\Preview\Enterprise\MSBuild\Xamarin\Android\Xamarin.Android.Common.targets(907,29): error MSB4030: "Z" is an invalid value for the "AndroidApiLevel" parameter of the "GetAndroidDefineConstants" task. The "AndroidApiLevel" parameter is of type "System.Int32".

What does it take to *use* a new (and unstable!) API level?

Commit 8942eca tried to lay some of this out, but *in principal* the
current process should be:

 1. Bind the new API level.
 2. Add a new `@(AndroidApiInfo)` entry for the new API level.
 3. Specify the `$(TargetFrameworkVersion)` of the new API level when
    building a project.

Commit 8ce2537 bound API-P as v8.1.99, finishing steps (1) and (2).
Therefore, step (3) should just work, right?

	$ cd samples/HelloWorld
	$ ../../bin/Debug/bin/xabuild /p:TargetFrameworkVersion=v8.1.99
	# no errors

Success!

Except, when reading the diagnostic log file, we see:

	ResolveSdksTask Outputs:
	  AndroidApiLevel: 27
	  AndroidApiLevelName: 27
	  ...
	  TargetFrameworkVersion: v8.1.99

We're using the correct v8.1.99 *binding assembly*, but we're *not*
using the API-P `android.jar`, because the `<ResolveSdks>` task is
treating v8.1.99 (API-P/API-28) as API-27.

Oops.

---

There are three msbuild invocations of consequence here:

 1. `xabuild /p:AndroidUseLatestPlatformSdk=True`
 2. `xabuild /p:AndroidUseLatestPlatformSdk=True  /p:TargetFrameworkVersion=v8.1.99`
 3. `xabuild /p:AndroidUseLatestPlatformSdk=False /p:TargetFrameworkVersion=v8.1.99`

(1) is the "default build" scenario (at least so long as our default
project templates specify `$(AndroidUseLatestPlatformSdk)`=True).
This should build the project against the latest *stable* API level
and `$(TargetFrameworkVersion)`, as per 0780e27. This works. (Yay!)

If you want to build an *unstable* API level, then the
`$(TargetFrameworkVersion)` value must be set explicitly, either on
the command-line (as shown here) or by editing the `.csproj`.

(2) and (3) are variations to build using the unstable API-P binding;
they *should* be identical, but due to code-path differences in
`<ResolveSdks>`, they are not necessarily the same.

Both (2) and (3) *should* work; they don't, with different behaviors.

(2) *builds*, but uses the wrong `android.jar` during compilation, as
described above with the `samples/HelloWorld` example.

Fix (2) by setting `ResolveSdks.AndroidApiLevel` to
`ResolveSdks.SupportedApiLevel`, so that it overrides the default
behavior of using the latest *stable* API level value when
`$(AndroidUseLatestPlatformSdk)`=True.

(3) does *not* build:

	  ResolveSdksTask Outputs:
	    AndroidApiLevel: P
	    AndroidApiLevelName: P
	...
	Task "GetAndroidDefineConstants"
	…\Xamarin\Android\Xamarin.Android.Common.targets(910,29):
	error MSB4030: "P" is an invalid value for the "AndroidApiLevel" parameter of the "GetAndroidDefineConstants" task. The "AndroidApiLevel" parameter is of type "System.Int32".
	Done executing task "GetAndroidDefineConstants" -- FAILED.

(3) doesn't build because the `<GetAndroidDefineConstants/>` task
invocation is provided `$(_SupportedApiLevel)`, which is the above
`AndroidApiLevel` output, and thus contains a value of `P`.

Fix (3) by using `AndroidVersions.GetApiLevelFromId()` to lookup the
correct API level based on the id derived from
`$(TargetFrameworkVersion)` value.

This in turn raises a *different* bug: `aapt package` doesn't like
to use id values, it wants *just* numbers. Fixing *just*
`<ResolveSdks>` results in a build error:

	Aapt Task

	obj/Debug/android/manifest/AndroidManifest.xml(8): error APT0000: No resource found that matches the given name (at 'icon' with value '@mipmap/icon').

Fix this by updating the `<GetJavaPlatformJar/>` task so that
`GetJavaPlatformJar.TargetSdkVersion` contains an integer API level
value, not the API id. This fixes the `<Aapt/>` error.

Works for me against the following PR build - https://jenkins.mono-project.com/view/Xamarin.Android/job/xamarin-android/938/Azure/. There is however an issue related to UseLatest behavior that I will be filing separately.
