Enable building on Linux #461

It would be nice if we could build this repo on non-Windows operating systems.

The UAP target is giving us trouble, but the irony is we don't need anything special for that target. We just need the TFM to show up in the nuget package and we need it to change which .cs files are included in the compilation. We might be able to hack a UAP target but without the UAP .targets imports so it builds anywhere. See https://github.com/dotnet/sdk/issues/11753#issuecomment-643384066

I guess we'd want to run tests after building anyway, and that would of course need to run on Windows. So, not really a great goal.
