Bumps androidx.appcompat:appcompat from 1.3.0 to 1.7.1.

AppCompat 1.8.0 raises its minimum SDK to API 23, which fails the API 21 UI test app's manifest merge. The published appcompat and appcompat-resources 1.7.1 AARs both declare minSdk 21, so this is the latest stable AppCompat release compatible with the current Android minimum.

Validation:

  • make format api
  • make assembleUiTestRelease (release and Android test APKs)

Both passed locally. Full PR CI is the remaining gate.

Bumps androidx.appcompat:appcompat from 1.3.0 to 1.8.0.

Keep the Android sample and UI test app on an AppCompat release that supports minSdk 21. AppCompat 1.8.0 requires API 23 and fails the UI test app manifest merge.

Dropping from 1.8.0 -> 1.7.1 b/c the latter is the last AppCompat version to support minSdk 21.
