Manifest Merging now Implemented

[Andrew Grieve]

Just wanted to signal boost that our build system now performs manifest merging, and does so by default for android_aar() targets.

https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=643967

While I think this feature is overall quite useful for things like:

   <meta-data android:name="com.google.android.gms.version" .../>

I'd guess we don't really want to use it too much or else risk our AndroidManifest.xml being hard to debug (Android Studio has manifest merging tracing / debugging, but it doesn't work with how we're integrating with Studio).

This is really cool! How does it handle <uses-sdk> tags with android:minSdkVersion and android:maxSdkVersion set?

That's a good question! And in truth, I don't know :P.

There do seem to be some docs here though that mention it:
