ListView: TapGestureRecognizer and ContextActions

[zimmerrol]

Description

When using a TapGestureRecognizer inside a Grid in a ViewCell together with ContextActions the tap event will be fired every time the user interacts with the item, even when the user is doing a longclick, which should open to action menu.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Long press on an item

Expected Behavior

The context action menu should open and the user should be able to interact which the actions.

Actual Behavior

The context action menu is opened, but at the same time tap event of the gesture recognizer is called. If you are using this event to navigate (e.g. to a detail page) the user will not be able to use the action menu properly.

A workaround: override StartSupportActionMode and OnSupportActionModeFinished on your main activity, use that to determine when to ignore the single click. Horrible, but seems to work.
