Commit 28b4639 added the ability to load the 32bit
dll from the current directory. However on MacOS/dotnet
this does not work. The current DllImportSearchPath
setting only allows for loading from known Safe paths.

On MacOS/dotnet it seems this does not include the
assembly directoy. Our current setup in Xamarin.Android
places the native libaries in the same directory as
the assembly, so we need that to work.

The fix is to include the value AssemblyDirectory in the
DllImportSearchPath setting as well as the SafeDirectories
value. This should allow dotnet to find native libraries which
are in the same directory.
