Seeing Beacons in the background on Android in a X.F PCL solution.

So its straight forward enough to monitor for beacons in the foreground in a PCL with the Androids MainActivity being the IBeaconConsumer.

But I'm not sure how to get background monitoring working, as when we did this in a Shared project the Android App derived from IBootstrapNotifier, but of course in a PCL the App is in Forms so I can't just go making an Android App file that derives from IBootstrapNotifier.

We're using the AltBeacon NuGet for Android as we're using generic beacons (well gimbals but as their security feature fills the bluetooth log on androids running less than 4.4.3 we're running them in generic mode)

Anyone have any ideas?
