Description

Describe the bug
I'm using the version of Android Studio below:

Android Studio Dolphin 2021.3.1 Patch 1
Build #AI-213.7172.25.2113.9123335

When I add the SDK URL as described in the WikiPage (https://github.com/microg/GmsCore/wiki/Development-Tools), the repository adds, but is not listed after closing and reopening the SDK Manager to check for updates.

Troubleshooting
I wanted to see if Android Studio would pick up a local XML file using the file:/// protocol, so I compared differences between Google's official repository XML files and the microG repository XML files. The only difference so far was that XML header tag at the top of the Google official XML, so I added it into a local copy of the microG repository, but that didn't work:

<?xml version="1.0" ?>

Research direction

Start with the Development Tools WikiPage and reproduce the problem in Android Studio Dolphin's SDK Manager. Compare the microG repository XML with the Google repository XML and verify whether the microG repository remains listed after reopening the manager; done means it can be imported and checked for updates.
