While trying to make Version Tolerant Serialization [1] working (with a
BinaryFormatter) I found a tool like mono-api-info but which reports ABI
instead of API, very useful.

So I'm attaching a patch so it can be included in next mono releases (decided
to use an "ABI" conditional attribute because this way I don't mess up with the
kind of arguments that mono-api-info receives). If the patch gets approved I'll
add the necessary autofoo for the mono-abi-info script to be generated at
compile time.
