Part of #5167

The type is not accessed through reflection.

It is preserved by the linker when needed like:

illinkanalyzer -r Android.Runtime.Extensions linker-dependencies.xml.gz
...
--- Method:TResult Android.Runtime.Extensions::JavaCast(Android.Runtime.IJavaObject) dependencies ---
Dependency #1
        Method:TResult Android.Runtime.Extensions::JavaCast(Android.Runtime.IJavaObject)
        | MethodSpec:TResult Android.Runtime.Extensions::JavaCast<T>(Android.Runtime.IJavaObject) [1 deps]
        | Method:T Android.App.Activity::FindViewById(System.Int32) [1 deps]
        | MethodSpec:!!0 Android.App.Activity::FindViewById<Android.Widget.Button>(System.Int32) [1 deps]
        | Method:System.Void UnnamedProject.MainActivity::OnCreate(Android.OS.Bundle) [2 deps]
        | Assembly:UnnamedProject, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null [1 deps]

Do we need to preserve Android.Runtime.Extensions in "legacy" Xamarin.Android as well? I'm not sure why we needed to preserve it in the first place, and xamarin/monodroid@11529d47e does not provide enlightenment.

what's the illinkanalyzer command that gave you the output provided in the PR message?
