Replace the legacy Volley library with Android native HttpURLConnection to eliminate external HTTP dependencies and avoid version conflicts with consuming applications. Changes: - Created EncryptedLogHttpClient using HttpURLConnection - Updated EncryptedLogRestClient to use new HTTP client with Dispatchers.IO - Removed Volley dependency from build files - Deleted EncryptedLogUploadRequest (Volley-specific) - Removed RequestQueue initialization from AutomatticEncryptedLogging Benefits: - Zero external HTTP dependencies - No version conflicts with consuming apps - Reduced library size - Same coroutine-based API maintained - All error handling preserved 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Add comprehensive unit tests to verify EncryptedLogRestClient behavior with the new HttpURLConnection implementation. Changes: - Added MockWebServer test dependency (okhttp3:mockwebserver:3.2.0) - Created EncryptedLogRestClientTest with 7 test cases - Made EncryptedLogHttpClient URL configurable for testing - Tests verify correct request formatting, headers, and error handling Test coverage: - Request headers and body validation - Success response (200) - InvalidRequest error (400) - TooManyRequests error (429) - Unknown error responses (500) - Non-JSON error responses - Network connection failures (IOException) All tests passing with Robolectric test runner. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

What if the response is some HTTP error that doesn't contain a JSON body? e.g. HTTP 500 or the like?
Don't we want to still report the actual statusCode that was the cause of the error in the returned UploadEncryptedLogError object, like you do in the return UploadEncryptedLogError.Unknown(statusCode, errorMessage) fallback from line R49?

Sure, good point - we should pass the statusCode 👍
When the server returns a non-JSON response (e.g., HTTP 500 with HTML), the status code is now included in the UploadEncryptedLogError.Unknown object for consistent error reporting and better debugging. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

Motivation
Some clients experience "ApplicationNotResponding in
EncryptedLogging" ANRs, and one of the ideas is that Volley initialization (especially its cache) might be a contributing factor.In this PR, I change the heavy and legacy Volley HTTP library for a straightforward, Android-native
