Summary:
Note that if you target API Level 28 (Android 9.0) or higher, then Google now requires that you add "android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE" to the "AndroidManifest.xml" file. If you don't have this permission, then a permission exception will be thrown when attempting to set up a foreground service.
This PR does not prevent an exception. Instead, it'll throw the below exception message instead to help clarify what is needed. Also, this PR will throw this exception on older Android OS versions too if the permission is missing, which Google does not do, but it is intended to help developers who don't have an Android P device to help with.
Also note that the above only applies when targeting Android 9.0 (aka: API Level 28) or higher.
