1.2.0 Regression -> Crash on network type change on android 11

[rjaylwar]

When you try and connect on a non-wifi connection the IVS player crashes.

Likely Cause: Probably related to the android 11 behavior changes for the TelephonyManager#getDataNetworkType() method which requires the Manifest.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE permission. https://developer.android.com/reference/android/telephony/TelephonyManager#getNetworkType()

This is a regression because the crash does not occur in version 1.0.0 but it does occur in version 1.2.0.

Hi @rjaylwar, thanks for reporting this issue. We are working on a fix now with a target release date of next week. In the meantime, if possible, we recommend targeting a previous Android API level. As you mentioned, this issue only occurs on Android 11. Thanks again.

We released a fix for this in 1.2.1: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ivs/latest/userguide/IVSPRN.html

Thanks again for reporting this issue.
