[mono-android] Assembly strong name validation and Mono.Security

[Igor Russkih]

Hello,

I've found that strong named assemblies are not validated upon load.

Moreover, Mono.Security assembly is shipped stripped, in particular it
misses StrongName class - so even manual validation is not possible.

What is the background behind these decisions?

The origin for the question is simple: add an extra layer of protection
agains possible binaries alteration.
