Describe the bug
When building the talawa app we get an UniLinksPlugin API warning message. This needs to be fixed

• Our test code coverage percentage will need to be improved or maintained as part of this fix.
• DO NOT ATTEMPT to solve the issue by ignoring the error message in build.gradle That is not a viable solution to this issue.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Build the Talawa app
2. Monitor the console
3. See message below

There should be no deprecation warning

@palisadoes this is not a talawa specific issue since this is a dependency in our codebase and it's stable enough inspite being deprecated there is nothing much we could handle in talawa codebase about it. Plus they have this issue being worked upon.

[palisadoes]

Should we therefore find another package to use instead?

[CyberWake]

This is a issue with the deprecated linting or so which I am looking upon basically this type or warning only appears once after the gradle is synced it doesn't appear on subsequent builds of the app. Plus this could be a mean while solution to get rid of such warning.

[palisadoes]

In that case let's apply the suggested fix.

The fewer spurious messages the better

@palisadoes I don't this works have tried this but it still gives the warning.
I have also gone through the depth of the issue this is basically due to the native java or kotlin code used in the dependency and the codebase of dependency is not perfectly linted. Due to which we get this warning.

[palisadoes]

OK, I'll close the issue. Thanks
