[mono-android] How to use "dip" or "dp" layout dimension for LayoutParams width and height?

[g pe]

It may not be the solution but I use the Canvas.Dpi value I have in the
argument of OnDraw(Canvas) of a View and use it to convert from my units.

Changing the Dpi is not the solution anyway as it would be a big job/mess
for the entire system. Just scale with the actual Dpi of the device. I
guess you can find this value from somewhere else if you are not overriding
the View.OnDraw
