Xamarin.Android native runtime calls mono_reflection_type_from_name
and passes NULL as the image parameter. The parameter is then
propagated all the way to _mono_reflection_get_type_from_info where,
in case the assembly isn't loaded yet, it is used to obtain base
directory of the assembly. However, since the image parameter is
NULL in our case, attempt to dereference it causes a segfault:

Even though this happens in Xamarin.Android, the error may occur for
any embedding application which passes NULL for the image parameter
in situation when the assembly isn't in memory yet.

`Xamarin.Android` native runtime calls `mono_reflection_type_from_name`
and passes `NULL` as the `image` parameter.  The parameter is then
propagated all the way to `_mono_reflection_get_type_from_info` where,
in case the assembly isn't loaded yet, it is used to obtain base
directory of the assembly.  However, since the `image` parameter is
`NULL` in our case, attempt to dereference it causes a segfault:
