Github workflows Android project

The Github actions have to be inside the .github/workflows folder, as it is in this repository. For security reasons, the recommendations is about storing sensitive data like keystore, token etc. into Github actions secrets (./settings/secrets/actions). We don't keep them inside the project.

All the workflows target Java 17 because of Gradle 8. The selected runner engine is Ubuntu, cheaper than macOS.
