[Mono has support for improved SGEN GC Bridge behavior][0] which bumps the value of `SGEN_BRIDGE_VERSION` from `4` to `5`, and will be present within Mono 4.8. Xamarin.Android, meanwhile, is currently targeting Mono 4.6, which won't be getting support for this new SGEN bridge version. What is desired is a way to use xamarin-android with Mono 4.7/4.8 to test out the new GC bridge behavior, without breaking existing Mono 4.6 support. The solution is a new MSBuild property, `$(MonoSgenBridgeVersion)`, which allows overriding the `SGEN_BRIDGE_VERSION` value used when building the `libmono-android` native library. By default this MSBuild prpoperty is `4`, for compatibility with Mono 4.6. [0]: https://github.com/mono/mono/pull/3422/files

the value of
SGEN_BRIDGE_VERSIONfrom4to5, and will bepresent within Mono 4.8.
Xamarin.Android, meanwhile, is currently targeting Mono 4.6, which
won't be getting support for this new SGEN bridge version.
