[android] .NET 6 usage of $(_GetChildProjectCopyToPublishDirectoryItems)
See original GitHub issueContext: https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-android/pull/5308
Android can’t support the @(Content) build action because of the way Android apps remain compressed when they are installed on disk.
So for example, if you did:
<Content Include="Foo.txt" CopyToOutputDirectory="PreserveNewest" />
We can’t possibly put this in a location where File.OpenRead ("Foo.txt") would work when the app is running on Android. Developers instead would use @(AndroidAsset) and use Android APIs to access a Stream of the file. We emit a build warning in any Android project using @(Content).
All that to say, we are setting$(_GetChildProjectCopyToPublishDirectoryItems) to false for Android projects. Should this property be renamed so it is public? Drop the underscore?

Triage: You’re welcome to just use the property as is. We don’t think it’s worth changing at this time and it’s ok for you to use this property (with the warning that we aren’t as careful when making changes to internal properties)
Closing per above as I think you have the path forward.
