Description

@mar-v-in

On device with Android < Lollipop can you please also add ro.product.cpu.upgradeabi, in addition of ro.product.cpu.abi and ro.product.cpu.abi2 for the abi list?
https://github.com/microg/GmsCore/blob/2d1395936836ae81d680736bc2175bb691d20b53/play-services-base/core/src/main/java/org/microg/gms/common/DeviceConfiguration.java#L112

PS: It should be valid but just to be safe maybe check that it isn't empty, isn't unknown and that it is different from abi and abi2.

Research direction

Start in play-services-base/core/src/main/java/org/microg/gms/common/DeviceConfiguration.java around line 112 and inspect how the existing ABI properties are collected. Add support for ro.product.cpu.upgradeabi on Android versions below Lollipop, accepting it only when non-empty, known, and distinct from the first two ABIs. Done means the resulting ABI list includes the third value only when valid.
