[Bug] Button Focus not working on Android Platform in latest version, was working in 3.4

[simonXarios]

I am running a Xamarin Forms app on an Amazon Fire TV platform (Android).

I have recently upgraded from 3.4 to 4.1 as there are fixes in latest stable version which are needed in my app.

However, since upgrading I can no longer focus on a Button element programatically. This is essential for my app because the platform doesn't register touch events.

When running the .Focus() method on a button a false boolean is returned every time and my button state is not updated as expected,
