Rebuilding the bundled tbxml dependency

Google Play now enforces 16 KB memory pages for native code. The original tbxml-android.aar shipped with this plugin was built with Android NDK r17 and does not meet that requirement, which triggered policy warnings. We now ship a locally rebuilt AAR compiled with a modern NDK (r26d tested) and provide tooling to regenerate it when needed.

To produce a fresh AAR:

1. Download/extract an Android NDK r23b or newer.
2. From the project root run:

   npm run build:tbxml -- --ndk /path/to/android-ndk-r26d

   You can also rely on NDK_HOME, ANDROID_NDK_HOME, or NDK_BUILD if those env vars point to a valid installation.
3. The script writes tools/tbxml-android/build/tbxml-android.aar. Copy it to src/android/frameworks/ if you want to update the plugin artifact.

The helper script and native sources live under tools/tbxml-android/; see the README in that directory for additional details.
