[BRLTTY] Building for android

[payman shaykhmehdi]

I've managed to successfully build the apk.

After upgrading gradle using gradle wrapper :

(in brltty/Android/Gradle/ ) : ./gradlew wrapper --gradle-version=7.3.1
--distribution-type=bin

running `cfg-android` gives the following errors :

/mk4build: 104: ./mk4build: let: not found
> ./mk4build: 104: ./mk4build: let: not found
> ./mk4build: 111: cd: can't cd to /tmp/mk4build.20220510-144920.6OhjnT


`let` is installed on my system and I can't understand this error!

So just for curiosity I checked out the commit with "BRLTTY-6.4.1" tag and
with the following steps the build was successful :

$ git checkout BRLTTY-6.4.1
> $ ./autogen
> $ export ANDROID_NDK=/path/to/Android/Sdk/ndk-bundle
> $ export ANDROID_SDK_ROOT=/path/to/Android/Sdk
> $ ./cfg-android
> $ cd Android/Gradle
> $ make


Now I've several apks in  "Android/Gradle/app/build/outputs/apk/debug/",
which one should I install? Is that *app-universal-debug.apk ?*
