• What went wrong:
  The Android Gradle plugin supports only Kotlin Gradle plugin version 1.5.20 and higher.

        classpath 'org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:1.6.21'

        // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
        // in the individual module build.gradle files
        classpath "com.bugsnag:bugsnag-android-gradle-plugin:7.+"
    }
