Recursion in Util.java. I suspect that this will lead to issues passing a Google Tier2 CASA

Inizia dal blocco catch di isDebuggableApp indicato in test-app/app/src/main/java/com/tns/Util.java, quindi esamina il punto di ingresso isDebuggable() in test-app/runtime/src/main/java/com/tns/Runtime.java. Conferma che il percorso catch non possa ricorsivamente richiamarsi e verifica che il comportamento risultante soddisfi il comportamento previsto e affronti la preoccupazione relativa alla scansione segnalata.

Environment
Provide version numbers for the following components (information can be retrieved by running tns info in your project folder or by inspecting the package.json of the project):

✔ Getting NativeScript components versions information...
✔ Component nativescript has 8.5.3 version and is up to date.
✔ Component @nativescript/core has 8.5.9 version and is up to date.
✔ Component @nativescript/ios has 8.5.2 version and is up to date.
✔ Component @nativescript/android has 8.5.2 version and is up to date.

Describe the bug
Hello together, I am currently preparing for a Tier2 CASA from Google. As I do have to provide Source Code scans using FluidAttacks and it detected a vulnerability in this context of printStackTrace I found the following issue.

https://github.com/NativeScript/android/blob/57388331bf85473d6c3cf5f115dd9d290b80d59b/test-app/app/src/main/java/com/tns/Util.java#L28

public static boolean isDebuggableApp(Context context) {
        int flags;
        try {
            flags = context.getPackageManager().getPackageInfo(context.getPackageName(), 0).applicationInfo.flags;
        } catch (NameNotFoundException e) {
            flags = 0;
            if (Util.isDebuggableApp(context)) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }

        boolean isDebuggableApp = ((flags & ApplicationInfo.FLAG_DEBUGGABLE) != 0);
        return isDebuggableApp;
    }

It is clear that printStackTrace() is only called in debug mode. However, I consider telling the guys at Google that this is save code as no good idea as it results in a recursion in the catch block. I would suspect that the e.printStackTrace(); in the catch block is actually never called, hence would it not make sense to completly remove it? I have also seen that the runtime provides
a check for isDebuggableApp. Maybe a save alternative would be to just call com.tns.Runtime.isDebuggable() ?

https://github.com/NativeScript/android/blob/57388331bf85473d6c3cf5f115dd9d290b80d59b/test-app/runtime/src/main/java/com/tns/Runtime.java#L248

I do not know the inner workings good enough to know if the runtime always exists at that point. Please consider it as just an idea.

Expected behavior
Catch should not run into a rekursion

Additional context

https://gitlab.com/fluidattacks/universe/-/issues/10406

Currently I am seeing lots of issues in FluidAttacks indirectly referencing this code. Below output is just an example. To my understanding this is a false positive as printStackTrace is not called for production builds. However, also in production builds the recursion would exist to my understanding.
