[mono-android] deployment errors should show up as build errors?

As this kind of bugs aren't so common things, I hope.

Thanks Jonathan.  I kinda figured this was the type of problem that was
happening.  Given that I haven't run into it now and I REALLY like the
faster builds, my suggestion is to continue the current system.  If it were
an option to select one or the other in the "Mono for Android" VS settings
that would be fine, but I understand just leaving it as is.
