  1. Creating .NET MAUI Project sometimes causes error *.png is being used…

    … by another process
    
    Fixes dotnet#25207
    Context
    dotnet/android-tools#245
    dotnet/android#9409
    
    So there is a problem where the design time builds (DTB) of android sometimes
    lock files. This can happen when two processes try to write to the same
    file. This is not a great experience for our users as it just fails the build.
    
    So lets try a few things to fix this.
    
    1. Move the Resizetizer output for a DTB into the android
    `$(IntermediateOutputPath)designtime` folder. This will keep the DTB files
    completely separate. This should prevent clashes.
    2. Add some retry code to the `SkiaSharpTools.Save` method. This will catch
    `UnauthorizedAccessException` exceptions as well as specific `IOException` types
    (Access Denied and Sharing Violation). This will allow us to catch when this happens
    and retry the write. There is a small delay before attempting to write the file
    again.
    
    Note these code uses the Identical code as we are going to use in Android.
    We have introduced two new environment variables which can be used to
    control the new behavior.
    
    1. `DOTNET_ANDROID_FILE_WRITE_RETRY_ATTEMPTS`. Integer, controls the number of times
    we try to write the file. The default is 10.
    2. `DOTNET_ANDROID_FILE_WRITE_RETRY_DELAY_MS`. Integer, controls the delay in
    milliseconds between retry attempts.  Default is 1000ms (or 1 second).
