Description

The WordPress-Android repo has its own duplicate copies of fastlane helpers and actions that it has been using instead of the ones from release-toolkit.

Most of those should be pretty close to doing the same as the ones that are now in release-toolkit, but the diff is not empty and the code have slightly diverged between both versions; so before blindly removing the ones in WordPress-Android we should check the differences first and ensure that switching to using the ones in release-toolkit instead of the local ones won't break WPAndroid's release process logic.

Research direction

Compare the duplicate fastlane helpers and actions in WPAndroid with the corresponding versions in release-toolkit, focusing on their behavioral differences rather than removing them blindly. Trace how WPAndroid uses the local versions in its release process, then verify that switching to release-toolkit preserves the existing release logic.
