CS1503 changing `string` to JLO via `managedType`

If you need to change a string to JLO for a method parameter, the generated code produces a CS1503 error because it generates this code:

// Metadata.xml XPath method reference: path="/api/package[@name='androidx.activity.result.contract']/class[@name='ActivityResultContracts.RequestPermission']/method[@name='createIntent' and count(parameter)=2 and parameter[1][@type='android.content.Context'] and parameter[2][@type='java.lang.String']]"
[Register ("createIntent", "(Landroid/content/Context;Ljava/lang/String;)Landroid/content/Intent;", "")]
public override unsafe global::Android.Content.Intent CreateIntent (global::Android.Content.Context context, global::Java.Lang.Object input)
{
	const string __id = "createIntent.(Landroid/content/Context;Ljava/lang/String;)Landroid/content/Intent;";
	IntPtr native_input = JNIEnv.NewString (input);
	try {
		JniArgumentValue* __args = stackalloc JniArgumentValue [2];
		__args [0] = new JniArgumentValue ((context == null) ? IntPtr.Zero : ((global::Java.Lang.Object) context).Handle);
		__args [1] = new JniArgumentValue (native_input);
		var __rm = _members.InstanceMethods.InvokeAbstractObjectMethod (__id, this, __args);
		return global::Java.Lang.Object.GetObject<global::Android.Content.Intent> (__rm.Handle, JniHandleOwnership.TransferLocalRef);
	} finally {
		JNIEnv.DeleteLocalRef (native_input);
		global::System.GC.KeepAlive (context);
		global::System.GC.KeepAlive (input);
	}
}

This produces:

Error CS1503 Argument 1: cannot convert from 'Java.Lang.Object' to 'string?'

For this line:

  IntPtr native_input = JNIEnv.NewString (input);

Although there is a cast from JLO to string, the cast is explicit, meaning we need to use this:

  IntPtr native_input = JNIEnv.NewString ((string?)input);

There was some concern that the explicit cast may not work as expected at runtime because Java.Lang.String does not implement IConvertable. For the following tests:

var str = new Java.Lang.String ("my_string");
var obj = (Java.Lang.Object) str;

Console.WriteLine (str);
Console.WriteLine (obj);
Console.WriteLine ((string)obj);
Console.WriteLine (Convert.ToString (obj));

All outputs are my_string, which appears to be what we want.
