Add CI workflow to build downloadable example APK#617
Conversation
Separate workflow that builds a release APK (JS bundled, no Metro needed) from the example app. Triggered on push, PR, and manually via workflow_dispatch. The APK is uploaded as artifact with 30-day retention. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

actions/setup-node npm caching will only consider the default lockfile path (root package-lock.json). Since this workflow also runs npm ci in example/, add cache-dependency-path including example/package-lock.json so the example install can benefit from the npm cache as well and avoid slower CI runs.

This workflow largely duplicates the Android build steps already present in .github/workflows/ci.yml (Node/Java setup, Gradle cache, root build, example install, Gradle assemble). Consider extracting the common logic into a reusable workflow (workflow_call) or a composite action so debug/release builds don’t drift over time and CI maintenance stays centralized.
