### Description
Reduce a number of auxillary objects created to reduce GC pressure.
Eliminate GCHandle type of memory pinning in most of the places.
Improve string marshalling by allocating unmanaged memory that does not
require pinning. Change native methods from `IntPtr` to `byte[]`
(marshalling pinning is more efficient).
Allocate input/output UTF-8 names in unmanaged heap for the lifetime of
InferenceSession. So we do not keep converting them and pinning on every
Run.
Introduce a new native API that allows to allocate and convert/copy
strings directly into a native tensor.
The PR delivers around 50% latency improvements and less GC pauses.
Inspired by: https://github.com/microsoft/onnxruntime/pull/15520
### Motivation and Context
Client experience GC pressure and performance degradation when dealing
with string tensors.

### Description
Implement Optional Type metadata support in the library.
Implement optional support in C# API along with metadata.
Implement Sequence, Map, Optional test data support
and test execution.
Prune tests and provide more details for failing tests in C# code.
Note, this PR does not enable running onnx test models in C++.
### Motivation and Context
Opset18 optional type support.
Add Xamarin support to the ORT nuget packages.
- Update C# code to support Xamarin builds for iOS and Android
- refactor some things to split out common code
- include iOS and Android ORT native shared library in native nuget package
