Research direction

Start by reading the linked Home Assistant Android issue and its referenced comment to understand the current Matter commissioning flow and the Google Account dependency. Then locate the existing commissioning entry point in GmsCore and document the Android APIs involved. Done means Matter devices can be commissioned without a Google Account, with the relevant flow covered by tests.
