[MCPE-45476] Exiting the game with a custom skin changes it to cross platform skin

After applying a skin on switch bedrock (Farmer Villager), my skin choice on Windows 10 keeps on changing to it when a custom skin was previously selected. This also happens if the switch version is not used at all

steps to reproduce

1) set a skin on a console version

2) on a non-console version, use a custom skin

3) reboot the non-console version and see that the previous skin is selected and not the custom skin

Issue on both Android and Windows 10 (I have custom skins on both, but neither saves)

Edit on 16 July 2019: Issue still exists in 1.12.0, despite saying it was "Fixed".

Affects version 1.12.0. Cross-platform skin on Xbox One and custom skin on Windwos 10 and iPhone X (iOS 12.3.1) and both keeps changing

Workaround:

before applying a custom skin, set your skin to Steve. After this, reloading the game keeps the custom skin until you apply a cross platform skin

My custom skin used to stay then I accidentally selected a "cross-platform skin." Now every time I open Minecraft it goes that skin, not my custom skin.

This is still a problem even in 1.12.1 on Windows 10. Please do fix this, I'd very much like to use my custom skin without having to go and set it each and every time I open the game.

Finally works in 1.13.0
