chore: import napi-android history

[DjDeveloperr]

What changed

Imports the NativeScript/napi-android main branch history into this repository under platforms/android/, preserving the Android commit topology after rewriting paths for monorepo placement.

The import adds a root .gitattributes entry for Android V8 monolith archives and stores those archives with Git LFS so the branch can be pushed to GitHub without regular Git blobs over 100 MB.

Why

This creates the first clean history-preserving layer for turning the runtime repository into a monorepo that can host iOS/macOS/Android in one place, with room for future Linux and Windows runtime work.

Validation

• Confirmed the branch shares origin/refactor as its merge base.
• Confirmed the branch adds 221 commits versus origin/refactor.
• Confirmed platforms/android/ contains 10,230 files at HEAD.
• Confirmed git log --follow -- platforms/android/README.md traverses imported Android history.
• Confirmed no regular Git blob in the new history is over 100 MB.
• Confirmed 12 V8 monolith archives are tracked through Git LFS.
• Ran git fsck --connectivity-only; it completed successfully. Dangling objects reported are from local scratch rewrites and are not referenced by the pushed branch.

Everything in the folder `platforms/android/test-app/app/src/main/assets/app/shared folder is not needed since those tests and files are shared across iOS and Android I think in the original android/ios runtimes. At the time when I was writing the runtimes I didn't make the effort to use gitmodules and link it properly and just copied it over. I think we can find a way around this since the shared folder is imported from JS on android and the imports are relative to current script dir. Maybe we can have a script that will copy the files over from a common place on android and ios as needed.

The github workflows are outdated and we probably want to replace them with something better that builds with all engines. Either we remove these and address this later or do it now.

Remove .vscode and .idea folders.

Remove this file and related code in MainActivity.js to run benchmark.

We probably don't need to commit node_modules.
