Description

### Is there an existing issue for this?

- [X] I have searched the existing issues

### Suggestion

Description
Xamarin support was temporarily removed but should still be supported under the .NET Standard implementations.
This may require some specialized building of the package for these particular runtimes and more complicated setup so that a developer can easily utilize the library.

The suggestion is to implement Conditions to implement some of the previous code originally in the previously made iOS and Android projects. This may require using [Build Extras](https://github.com/novotnyllc/MSBuildSdkExtras).

-[iOS specifics](https://github.com/microsoft/electionguard-cpp/blob/0bad662f3c6c32f4f7c257b2826d448930736594/bindings/netstandard/ElectionGuard/ElectionGuard.iOS/ElectionGuard.iOS.csproj#L52)
