generator needs to generate 'abstract' members for abstract members.

For example, AdapterView.getAdapter() is defined as abstract:

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/AdapterView.html#getAdapter()

Yet it's currently only declared as virtual:

http://docs.monodroid.net/index.aspx?link=P:Android.Widget.AdapterView.Adapter

Worse is the AdapterView<T>.Adapter property, which isn't even virtual:

http://docs.monodroid.net/index.aspx?link=P:Android.Widget.AdapterView.Adapter

(Though this does raise the question: since AdapterView<T> inherits
AdapterView, and we'd have the same property name for both, how are people
supposed to actually subclass AdapterView<T>?  Perhaps making AdapterView<T>
non-virtual is correct, so that people can override the base
AdapterView.Adapter method...but that might not work either.  Testing/thought
required.)

We need to also see if there are any other abstract members which aren't being
bound as abstract.
