updates tailscale/android# Our strategy of using the tailscale version to derive a playstore version has a flaw in that an uploaded unstable prevents us from bumping our stable releases since the new derived version doesn't respect the versions-shall-increment rule. Instead, let's just use a version derived from the timestamp when we bump or tag. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nobels <jonathan@tailscale.com>
