Describe the bug
I am having a grid layout showing tiles see images attached, those are set up using the following code snipped

<GridLayout #idBaseGridLayout class="mnd" iosOverflowSafeArea="true" [paddingBottom]="BOTTOM_BAR_HEIGHT" [marginLeft]="_isTablet ? '60' : '0' ">
  <GridLayout #idInnerGridLayout col="0" row="0" ios:columns="*,10,*" ios:rows="*,10,*,10,*"
    android:columns="{{(_tinyScreen || _smallScreen) ? '*,5,*' : '*,10,*'}}" android:rows="{{(_tinyScreen || _smallScreen) ? '*,5,*,5,*' : '*,10,*,10,*' }}"
    class="{{(_tinyScreen || _smallScreen) ? 'tiles-padding-small-screen' : 'tiles-padding' }}" iosOverflowSafeArea="false">

When moving from angular 17.2.1 to 17.3.0 this layout breaks because of the following line

android:columns="{{(_tinyScreen || _smallScreen) ? '*,5,*' : '*,10,*'}}" android:rows="{{(_tinyScreen || _smallScreen) ? '*,5,*,5,*' : '*,10,*,10,*' }}

_tinyScreen and _smallScreen are booleans both set to false. When I set columns and rows to a fixed value things are working as expected.

I also tried to change the property binding to the following line, but this also does not work:

[android:columns]="(_tinyScreen || _smallScreen) ? '*,5,*' : '*,10,*'" [android:rows]="(_tinyScreen || _smallScreen) ? '*,5,*,5,*' : '*,10,*,10,*' "

To Reproduce

Expected behavior

Sample project

Additional context

Comece com a atualização relatada para Angular 17.3.0 e o snippet de GridLayout, depois reproduza a falha de layout exclusiva do Android usando as versões listadas e compare-a com Angular 17.2.1. Considera-se concluído quando android:columns e android:rows vinculados renderizarem a mesma grade que os valores fixos, sem introduzir regressões no caso de telas pequenas.
