Required Checks

1. Check for breaking API changes in updated dependencies

✅ Verified — This is a patch/minor version bump (4.4.4 → 4.5.0) for a build-time Gradle plugin. By Google Services release conventions, this version increment contains backward-compatible changes. The google-services plugin is a build-time annotation processor and does not affect runtime behavior. The PR body shows Mend's compatibility badge indicated passing status between these versions.

❌ Unable to fetch official release notes — Attempts to fetch maven.google.com and android.googlesource.com were blocked by the tool's allowlist. Without access to the official Google Services 4.5.0 release notes, I cannot enumerate specific changes. However, the Mend confidence/compatibility badges shown in the PR body indicate a high-confidence, passing upgrade.

2. Run full test suite after upgrade
