[mono-android] Turning display on and off

[Stephan Steiner]

The issue with that is that it requires special permissions my app doesn't
have. I'm not really looking to put the device to sleep, I merely want to
turn off the screen.

I found this:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3018716/android-turn-off-screen-when-close-to-face

so I guess I need a way to get a new wake lock with the value of
PROXIMITY_SCREEN_OFF_WAKE_LOCK but that value isn't available in M4A. And
the SpeakerProximity project is GPL'ed, and I don't suppose using java
interop (which I'd like to avoid at this juncture) would be considered
different from using the lib in a java project (so basically a nogo).
