AndroidでXamarin FormsのApplication.Current.Propertiesが保存されない

問題

Androidで、Application.Current.Propertiesに保存した値がアプリを再起動すると復元されない。
デバッグビルドでは正常に復元されるが、リリースビルドのときだけダメ。
iOSでは正常に復元される。

実行時ログにこのように出ている：

解決法

https://forums.xamarin.com/discussion/64410/in-android-linker-options-have-to-chose-the-dont-link-option-or-the-propertystore-wont-work
に書いてあるが、要はXamarin Formsのバグというよりリンカの問題で、ワークアラウンドは2つある。

1. Androidプロジェクトのオプションで「リンクしない」を選択する
2. 同じくオプションで「無視するアセンブリ」にSystem.Runtime.Serializationを追加する

1か2のどちらかを行えば良い。
当方では2のみ実施してうまくいくことを確認した。
