Description

Some people may try to build on Linux (https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/issues/17287).

This will not work, but the error message is not useful in the slightest (see https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/issues/17287 for an example).

So we should show a better error message explaining that it's not supported to build on Linux.
