Passing compile sdk lower than 28 fails build with tns-android@next

CLI: 5.0.0-2018-10-16-12488 (RC)
Android Runtime: 5.0.0-2018-10-23-165909-01

The new android runtime requires sdk 28. If you build such project with tns build --compileSdk 27 the build will fail with error for missing resources. We need a check in that case and warning that you cannot build project with last android runtime with sdk lower than 28.

Steps:

1. tns create TestApp --js
2. tns platform add android@next
3. tns build android --compileSdk 27

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

• What went wrong:
  Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugResources'.

Commencez par reproduire tns build android --compileSdk 27 après avoir créé une application et ajouté android@next, puis suivez le traitement de --compileSdk par la CLI. Le travail est terminé lorsque la combinaison incompatible SDK/Runtime est détectée et génère un avertissement, au lieu d’échouer plus tard en raison de ressources Android manquantes.
