[DON-2499] Bump Android Gradle plugin and related dependencies

[RichSutherSky]

Bump Android Gradle plugin and related dependencies; update proguard file and managed device configuration

This pull request updates the project's Android build configuration and dependencies to align with the latest Android Gradle Plugin and related tooling. The main focus is on upgrading the Android plugin and lint versions, updating build settings for improved compatibility, and refining managed device definitions.

Build tool and dependency upgrades:

• Upgraded androidPlugin to version 9.0.0, lint to 32.0.0, and androidSdkCommon to 32.0.0 in gradle/libs.versions.toml to ensure compatibility with the latest Android build tools.

Build configuration improvements:

• Changed the default ProGuard configuration in the release build type in app/build.gradle.kts to use proguard-android-optimize.txt for improved code optimization during release builds.
• Added several new Android build system properties in gradle.properties (such as android.defaults.buildfeatures.resvalues, android.dependency.useConstraints, and others) to fine-tune build features and dependency resolution with the updated plugin.

Device configuration updates:

• Updated the managed device configuration in app/build.gradle.kts to use localDevices and simplified the device creation syntax for test environments.

• Check this if you have read and followed the contributing guidelines

Remember to include the following changes:

• Component README.md
• Tests

File	Description
gradle/libs.versions.toml	Updated Android plugin, lint, and SDK common versions from 8.13.2/31.x to 9.0.0/32.0.0
gradle.properties	Added new Android build feature flags and dependency resolution properties for AGP 9.0.0 compatibility
app/build.gradle.kts	Changed ProGuard configuration to use optimized variant and updated managed device syntax

These new Android build properties lack inline comments explaining their purpose and impact on the build. Given the complexity and non-obvious nature of these flags (especially ones like android.r8.strictFullModeForKeepRules and android.dependency.useConstraints), adding brief comments would help maintainers understand why each property was set to its specific value.

Property	Function	Change from AGP 8.13 to AGP 9.0	Recommendation
android.defaults.buildfeatures.resvalues	Enables resValues in all subprojects.	true → false	Enable resValues only in subprojects that need it via android { buildFeatures { resValues = true } }.
android.sdk.defaultTargetSdkToCompileSdkIfUnset	Uses the compile SDK version as the default target SDK if none is specified.	false → true	Specify targetSdk explicitly for apps and tests.
android.enableAppCompileTimeRClass	Compiles apps against a non-final R class to improve incrementality and performance.	false → true	Most projects can adopt directly; refactor usages that require constants (e.g. switch cases).
android.usesSdkInManifest.disallowed	Fails the build if <uses-sdk> is declared in the manifest.		Manage all SDK versions exclusively in Gradle; remove <uses-sdk> from manifests.
android.uniquePackageNames	Enforces that each library has a distinct package name.	false → true	Specify unique package names for all libraries; temporarily opt out only while migrating if unavoidable.
android.dependency.useConstraints	Controls use of dependency constraints between configurations.	true → false	Accept the new default unless constraints are required everywhere; improves project import performance.
android.r8.strictFullModeForKeepRules	Prevents implicit keeping of default constructors in R8 full mode.	false → true	Update keep rules to explicitly keep constructors where required (e.g. -keep class A { <init>(); }).
android.r8.optimizedResourceShrinking	Allows R8 to analyze code and resources together for better shrinking.	false → true	No change required if keep rules are already complete.
android.builtInKotlin	Enables AGP’s built-in Kotlin compiler support.	false → true	Migrate to built-in Kotlin if possible, or opt out temporarily during migration.
android.newDsl	Uses new DSL interfaces and disables legacy variant APIs.	false → true	Opt out temporarily with android.newDsl=false; remove the opt-out once all plugins are compatible.
