android-studio-full: init

[numinit]

Description of changes

Create the following APIs that bridge the gap between Android Studio and androidenv:

• androidStudioPackages.<flavor>.withSdk: Wraps Android Studio in an Android SDK created with androidenv. Exports ANDROID_SDK_ROOT and ANDROID_NDK_ROOT to the environment of the Android Studio process, if detected. This makes new projects default to the androidenv composition instead of needing to download SDKs separately, which causes emulators to break with dynamic linker errors when users try to run Android Studio out of the box on nixpkgs. Since androidenv already solves this problem, this improves the out of the box experience with Android Studio in nixpkgs.
• androidStudioPackages.<flavor>.full: Wraps Android Studio in a default "full" SDK composition
• android-studio-full: Alias for android-studio.full

Remove the following old androidenv composition:

• androidenv.androidPkgs_9_0

Add the following new androidenv composition:

• androidenv.androidPkgs

We should probably discuss this API change since it downloads a ton of Android system images, but is a way to have a relatively "full" version of androidPkgs.

It looks awesome. Thanks

[alapshin]

Agree, this looks great. Looking forward to getting it merged

For some reason AS is really stupid about not automatically populating ANDROID_SDK_ROOT automatically everywhere. Projects created will use it though.

Example

Good stuff.

A user on the Discord had a problem running the emulator from Android Studio, and it required the unnecessarily complicated solution of instantiating androidenv separately and writing out the local.properties with sdk.dir set. It was so close that I realized we could just wrap it and get the best of both worlds.

It's 100% worth observing how newbies to Nix use our stuff. After a couple hours of going back and forth, the use case was glaringly obvious.

Only thing I'm not sure about is the changelog, which may require a manual merge.
