MonoGame crashes during initialization on an iPad 3 physical device running iOS 9.
The current MonoGame initialization code incorrectly assumes that GLES 3 is available on a device if the iOS version number is 7 or higher.
In fact, some devices such as the iPad 3 do not support GLES 3, but they do support iOS versions up to 9.
The proposed fix is to first attempt to initialize GLES 3, and if that fails, fall back to GLES 2, per the Apple developer documentation (see Listing 2-1).
