Switched the build script repository from JCenter to Maven Central as JCenter is being deprecated. This ensures continued access to dependencies and improves future compatibility and support.
Upgraded target SDK version to 33 and updated app version to 0.9.1.0 with version code 24091700 in line with new release standards. Replaced 'jcenter' with 'mavenCentral' and added an additional Maven repository. Resolves potential build issues due to jcenter shutdown and ensures compatibility with latest Android features.
Upgraded Gradle plugin to version 8.1.0 and updated the wrapper to use Gradle 8.0. Updated build settings to modern standards, including non-final resource IDs and non-transitive R class. Moved lintOptions block to the proper lint configuration block in build.gradle. Removed the redundant package attribute from the AndroidManifest.xml since it's now defined in the namespace block.
These updates address compatibility issues and take advantage of new features and performance improvements provided by the latest Gradle version.
