[BUG] Using XAML HotReload breaks compilation targeting Android

[albyrock87]

Describe the Issue

I'm trying to contribute to the MAUI project https://github.com/dotnet/maui this commit
While targeting and android device or emulator and pressing F5 to debug this project I get a compilation error.

/Users/<myuser>/github/maui/src/Core/src/Microsoft.VisualStudio.HotReload.MobileTapInitializer/Microsoft.VisualStudio.HotReload.MobileTapInitializer.ModuleInitializerGenerator/HotReloadMobileTapInitializer.g.cs(24,40): error CS0436: The type 'HotReloadMobileTapInitializer' in 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.HotReload.MobileTapInitializer/Microsoft.VisualStudio.HotReload.MobileTapInitializer.ModuleInitializerGenerator/HotReloadMobileTapInitializer.g.cs' conflicts with the imported type 'HotReloadMobileTapInitializer' in 'Microsoft.Maui.Essentials, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'. Using the type defined in 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.HotReload.MobileTapInitializer/Microsoft.VisualStudio.HotReload.MobileTapInitializer.ModuleInitializerGenerator/HotReloadMobileTapInitializer.g.cs'. [/Users/<myuser>/github/maui/src/Core/src/Core.csproj::TargetFramework=net8.0-android]

Notes:

• I followed the following steps to make sure solution is clean and ready
• Disabling XAML HotReload lets me compile without issues

git clean -xdf
dotnet tool restore && dotnet build ./Microsoft.Maui.BuildTasks.slnf

Steps To Reproduce

No response

Expected Behavior

Android application should compile and start with HotReload working.

I attempted to run Maui.Controls.Sample project in VS Code on macOS and I get:

/Users/USER/maui/src/Controls/samples/Controls.Sample/Microsoft.VisualStudio.HotReload.MobileTapInitializer/Microsoft.VisualStudio.HotReload.MobileTapInitializer.ModuleInitializerGenerator/HotReloadMobileTapInitializer.g.cs(65,15): error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'Exception' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) [/Users/USER/maui/src/Controls/samples/Controls.Sample/Maui.Controls.Sample.csproj::TargetFramework=net8.0-maccatalyst]

This should be fixed now, in C# extension 2.39 and later, now published to prerelease.
If after updating the C# extension (and MAUI DevKit and C# DevKit extensions) to the latest prerelease you still see this problem, please let us know.
