This is supposed to fix an issue caused by this PR:
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/163924
Which made `autoPatchelfHook` available only on Linux, resulting in
builds of Android packages failing with:
```
error: Package ‘auto-patchelf-hook’ in /nix/store/...-nixpkgs-source/pkgs/build-support/trivial-builders.nix:73
is not supported on ‘x86_64-darwin’, refusing to evaluate.
```

The last repo.json update in a0f6a8af81 removed the default emulator version, so it had to be changed (or the repo.json had to be overwritten) for it to work.
Instead use the most recent available emulator version
I noticed this minor grammar mistake when running update.nix, and then
while grepping to find the source I noticed we had it a few times in
Nixpkgs. Just as easy to fix treewide as it was to fix the one
occurrence I noticed.
The distinction between the inputs doesn't really make sense in the
mkShell context. Technically speaking, we should be using the
nativeBuildInputs most of the time.
So in order to make this function more beginner-friendly, add "packages"
as an attribute, that maps to nativeBuildInputs.
This commit also updates all the uses in nixpkgs.
Android is deprecating ndk.dir in favor of specifying exact NDK
version in Gradle configuration. Ensure that we can support multiple
NDKs, and link them into the location the Android Gradle Plugin expects.
The script make_standalone_toolchain.py autogenerates some shell scripts
when invoked. These scripts have a hardcoded shebang of '#!/bin/bash'.
The generated scripts obviously do not work in a Nix environment. This
commit makes sure the scripts have the correct shebang.
androidenv did not previously write license files, which caused certain
gradle-based Android tools to fail. Restructure androidenv's list of
Android packages into a single repo.json file to prevent duplication
and enable us to extract the EULA texts, which we then hash with
builtins.hashString to produce the license files that Android gradle
tools look for.
Remove includeDocs and lldbVersions, as these have been removed
from the Android package repositories.
Improve documentation and examples.
We just need jdk for this script that helps set up toolchains. The
script might need to know about the target platform, but the interpreter
that runs it (or part of it) doesn't.
This commit was built as a revert commit followed by deletion:
* Revert "androidenv: manually (!) delete oldest revision of google
images".
* Delete other revision.
Using `systemImageType = "google_apis_playstore"` (and `abiVersion =
"x86"` and `platformVersion = "28"` - that I expect resolved to
`97d9d4f4a2afa8b0f5d52e90748e19c10406ca93`), the symptom is:
```
Warning: Observed package id 'system-images;android-28;google_ndk_playstore;x86' in inconsistent location '/nix/store/...-androidsdk/libexec/android-sdk/system-images/android-28/google_apis_playstore/x86' (Expected '/nix/store/...-androidsdk/libexec/android-sdk/system-images/android-28/google_ndk_playstore/x86')
...
Error: Package path is not valid. Valid system image paths are:
system-images;android-28;google_ndk_playstore;x86
```
How is the actual image name `google_ndk_playstore` when the fetched
image has id `google_apis_playstore`?
Attempt keeping - of the two images - the one that looks simpler.
For the `"28".google_apis."x86"` images, in the XML the differences
are: more complex license (what is `arm-dbt`?); higher emulator.
Namely:
```
<uses-license ref="android-sdk-license"/>
<dependencies>
<dependency path="patcher;v4"/>
<dependency path="emulator">
<min-revision>
<major>27</major>
<minor>1</minor>
<micro>7</micro>
...
<uses-license ref="android-sdk-arm-dbt-license"/>
<dependencies>
<dependency path="patcher;v4"/>
<dependency path="emulator">
<min-revision>
<major>29</major>
<minor>1</minor>
<micro>12</micro>
```
Analogously for `"28".google_apis_playstore."x86"`.
Symptom:
```
Available Android targets:
----------
id: 1 or "android-28"
Name: Android 9
Type: Platform
API level: 28
Revision: 6
Skins: HVGA, QVGA, WQVGA400, WQVGA432, WSVGA, WVGA800 (default), WVGA854, WXGA720, WXGA800, WXGA800-7in
Tag/ABIs : google_ndk_playstore/x86
...
Error: Invalid --tag google_apis_playstore for the selected target.
```
For creation of AVD, switch from `android` to `avdmanager` as the
latter seems enabling selecting the image with less friction (and is
better documented as not deprecated). This requires using recent
tools - from https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/sdk-tools :
> SDK Tools, Revision 25.3.0 (March 2017)
> ...
> `android avd` command-line functionality replaced with new
> `avdmanager` tool.
For listing of targets, switch from `android` to `avdmanager` as the
`android` command invocation fails in recent tools. Symptom (not
missing `s` as backward incompatibility):
```
Invalid or unsupported command "list targets"
Supported commands are:
android list target
android list avd
android list device
android create avd
android move avd
android delete avd
android list sdk
android update sdk
```

Move to a known version of the emulator. Each OS has a distinct
version... pick the one on Linux. A better solution would be to let
the user of `emulateApp` overload what the emulator version shall be
(and maybe it is already possible and I do not see it) - without need
to reproduce large portions of `default.nix`.
Using the previous emulator showed the following warning:
```
Your emulator is out of date, please update by launching Android Studio:
```
I am not aware of any reasons for not wanting the latest emulator (as
I expect it shall be compatible usually with more system images - not
less), so bump its default version.
