Using cli 4.0 RC.0 we run into an error for android release build

Description:
We are testing your 4.0 RC cli as requested in the readme file 😄
We have an ionic 3.9.2 app, but doing a simple android release build does not work for us, this is what we have done:

sudo npm i -g ionic@rc
ionic cordova build android --release

Steps to Reproduce:
If we do a UNSIGNED release on a fresh IONIC3 app with your new CLI 4 RC.0 we do not get the error, not sure if the problem is the app, cordova or the SIGNING method. But for sure the problem is only on --release tag

But if we revert to @latest cli the build is working again.

Output:
This is our output what we get

首先，使用 Ionic CLI 4.0.0-rc.0 和列出的 Cordova Android 環境重現命令 ionic cordova build android --release，然後將其與 @latest 比較；檢查與回報的重複類別 com/google/android/gms/actions/ItemListIntents 相關的 release 建置相依性輸入。完成的標準是 release 建置在沒有重複類別失敗的情況下完成，且該回歸已被涵蓋或獲得解釋。
