Description

### Steps to reproduce

I think this started between Thursday the 4th and Friday the 5th last week.

1. Fresh install of Element Android Nightly (Samsung A53 with all patches applied)
2. Tap on the app icon

### Outcome

#### What did you expect?
The app starting.

#### What happened instead?
The app crashes and Android asks if you want to clear the cache.

Clearing the cache, reinstalling while keeping the data, a full reinstall, or a fresh install give the same results.

#### Logcat
Output of `adb logcat --buffer=crash`:
