Research direction

Start by reviewing commit 891f3db038f73f527cab7eed8e85bdde0e3e6e7e and the linked Android Developers migration guide, then locate the existing FingerprintManager usage. Define the affected biometric flow and verify that it uses BiometricPrompt without the suppressed restricted API warning.
