3.5.1 release

We've finally pushed Mvx 3.5.1 on nuget

Some significant changes in this release are:
  • changes to binding strong `target` storage - to try to address issues with the latest Xamarin GC releases on iOS
  • changes to Android Java naming for all views
  • changes to Android inflation to assist with changes in Android support packages


Additionally, we have included:

  • Touch setup changes to ease XamForms integration
  • a fix for dynamic image helper (when reused in some error situations)

  • additions to support suspension management in WinStore and WinCommon
  • a fix for camera picker leaking on iOS
  • additional protected constructor added for dialog controller
  • typo fix in Android target bindings
  • some packages now have symbols on nuget - but not all - this is still a (frustrating) work in progress
  • IntPtr constructor added to MvxFrameControl
  • improvements to serialization for fragments presenter
  • CreateIoCOptions added for unit tests
  • bindable ExpandableListView added for Android
  • Seekbar binding becomes a better C# citizen
  • setter only property fix (broken by universal project changes)

  • switch to automatic nuget package restore

There's an  issue open on GitHub about changing the way the project is managed - bringing more people into the team, enabling more development and stopping certain old dinosaurs (me) slowing the project down - see https://github.com/MvvmCross/MvvmCross/issues/841 - would you like to be involved?
