feat(android): be able to add plugins to build.gradle

[AbdullahFaqeir]

feat(android): added classpathes to manifest
feat(android): add plugins to manifest
feat(android): custom root.build.gradle for modules

• classpathes will be added to the root project build.gradle to allow plugins to be identified.
• plugins will be added to the module build.gradle file.

Just a minor code style issue, thanks!

CR looks good from my end. @m1ga Any objections?

I guess I need to add a couple of more things to make this PR feature solid.

[m1ga]

i've not tested it as I don't have any test case or knowledge how to use plugins in a gradle file. But if it works for you and doens't break the usual stuff (module build, app build, hyperloop app, kitchensink app) then go for it 😄
if it is something "non standard" gradle stuff there should be some documentation how to use it

@hansemannn @m1ga This was the last commit needed to this PR, I've tested it from my side and it's all good now and ready to be merged, as for the documentation of how to use this, we need to add the update here, if you can tag me on where this is editable so I can work on the documentation of this new feature.

[m1ga]

Nice, that will be in this repo: https://github.com/tidev/titanium-docs/tree/main/docs/guide/Titanium_SDK/Titanium_SDK_How-tos/Extending_Titanium_Mobile

[AbdullahFaqeir]

Cool

Hyperloop apps won't build.

[ERROR] [GRADLE] 
[ERROR] [GRADLE] FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
[ERROR] [GRADLE] 
[ERROR] [GRADLE] * Where:
[ERROR] [GRADLE] Build file '/home/miga/tools/hyperloop-examples/build/hyperloop/android/build.gradle' line: 2
[ERROR] [GRADLE] 
[ERROR] [GRADLE] * What went wrong:
[ERROR] [GRADLE] Could not compile build file '/home/miga/tools/hyperloop-examples/build/hyperloop/android/build.gradle'.
[ERROR] [GRADLE] > startup failed:
[ERROR] [GRADLE]   build file '/home/miga/tools/hyperloop-examples/build/hyperloop/android/build.gradle': 2: Unexpected input: '{' @ line 2, column 13.

The generated build.gradle file looks like this:

	dependencies {
		classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:7.0.4'
		classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.10'
		classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version"
		<% for (let i = 0; i < classpathes.length; i++) {%>
		classpath '<%= classpathes[i] %>'
		<% } %>
	}

so it didn't replace the loop.

Module also won't build:

[ERROR] TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'split')
    at AndroidModuleBuilder.generateRootProjectFiles (/home/miga/.titanium/mobilesdk/linux/12.3.0/android/cli/commands/_buildModule.js:518:42)

[ERROR] An error occurred during build after 24ms
[ERROR] Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'split')

[AbdullahFaqeir]

check if this.manifest.plugins is there before splitting

[AbdullahFaqeir]

@m1ga can you please review this, thanks!

[m1ga]

please add the same fix here

[m1ga]

with the fixes I still get

[ERROR] [GRADLE] FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
[ERROR] [GRADLE] 
[ERROR] [GRADLE] * Where:
[ERROR] [GRADLE] Build file '/home/miga/dev/ti.mlkit/android/build/build.gradle' line: 14

when building a module as it will add an empty classpath line to the build/build.gradle:

buildscript {
	ext.kotlin_version = '1.8.20'

	repositories {
		google()
		mavenCentral()
	}
	dependencies {
		classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:7.0.4'
		classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.10'
		classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version"
		
		classpath ''
		
	}
}
...

The hyperloop error also still exists. To test it: clone and build https://github.com/tidev/hyperloop-examples

[AbdullahFaqeir]

@m1ga I'll try to work on it today and finish it ASAP.
