Android/Linux support

[gevartosky]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Even tho I noticed some parts of the codebase contain #if canImport(Combine) and other “#if os” imports, the app still fails to build for the Swift Android toolchain due to some dependencies.

Describe the solution you'd like

The existence of these conditional imports makes me wonder if there was an effort to support Linux at some point.

If so, I wish to contribute to this effort and eventually to also support building for Android.

Describe alternatives you've considered

n/a

Is the feature request related to any of the existing Amplify categories?

Hi @mattcreaser I'm working on the Android support from bottom up so I opened a PR targeting the aws-crt-swift first, but I noticed that the repo has several stale PR's.
How could we get some attention to this one?
awslabs/aws-crt-swift#344

@gevartosky Can you move the PR out of draft, and I will try to check with the CRT team if they can take a look at your PR.

@harsh62 done, thank you very much
