Description

Only <1% of the user from the PlayStore are using a device running API 21 (Android 5.0 and 5.1).

Let's consider moving `minSdk` value to 23.

Maybe create a first update to notify user on API 21 that this will be the latest upgrade.

Task (non-exaustive):
- [ ] Check fork agreement, especially Element's customers
- [ ] simplify the runtime permission handling
- [ ] Remove warning about Jitsi not supported on API 21
