* Correctly flag API dependency on AppCompat for Maven Currently when cordova-android is published to Maven, it lists no dependencies. However, `CordovaActivity` extends `AppCompatActivity` which requires that the AndroidX AppCompat library be available. Marking this as an API dependency (rather than an implementation/compile dependency) should cause the AndroidX AppCompat library to be installed when the cordova-android framework is added to the build.gradle of an existing Android application. * Publish to Maven with proper metadata This allows the Maven publish to pick up information from the android library component and include things like dependencies in the pom.xml file.
