Description
When linking to Observation and building with skip android build, the following linking error occurs:
cannot locate symbol "_ZN5swift9threading5fatalEPKcz" referenced by "/data/local/tmp/swift-android/Android-9EA98374-80B5-494A-9679-A2B5EBE1D083/libswiftObservation.so".

Research direction
Start by reproducing the linker failure while building with skip android build, then inspect the workaround in SkipAndroidBridge/Sources/SkipAndroidBridge/Observation.swift at lines 150-158. Compare the behavior with and without importing SkipAndroidBridge or SkipFuse. Done means Observation links successfully without requiring that workaround import.
