[mono-android] Binding classes don't implement Java.Lang.IComparable

[Atsushi Eno]

Hello,

That is a known limitation. The thing is, *generics don't really exist* 
in compiled java classes and we always need to explicitly supply which 
class the Comparable compares.

Hence the solution is, you add appropriate instantiated generic 
interface to Metadata.xml. This is an example:

<attr 
path="/api/package[@name='android.content']/class[@name='ComponentName']/implements[@name='java.lang.Comparable']" 
name="name">java.lang.Comparable<android.content.ComponentName></attr>
