Research direction

Start by locating the Android build configuration and checking the effects of android.enableJetifier=false and android.nonTransitiveRClass=true. Review dependency references for obsolete libraries, especially chatkit, and read nextcloud/talk-android#1552 for its removal context. Done means the old dependencies are removed and both requested build settings can be enabled.
