Description

**Describe the bug**
The OSS plugin seems to incorrectly include kotlin compiler licenses to the list of licenses of an app.

**To Reproduce**
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
1. Apply OSS plugin on exoplayer demo app project (https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/tree/release-v2/demos/main)(2.19.1)
2. Check third_party_liceses output
3. This contains a reference to: kotlinc/lib/kotlin-compiler.jar , kotlinc/lib/trove4j.jar

**Expected behavior**
Kotlin compiler are not expected to be included for a regular android app.

As the kotlin compiler uses a few none commercially friendly licenses such as LGPL 2.1 these these should not be added to avoid confusions.

**Desktop (please complete the following information):**
- Gradle version: [7.2.2]
- Android Studio version [2023.1.1 Patch 1 (stable)]:
- Plugin name and version [(oss-licenses-plugin:0.10.6)]:
