Replace getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt') with getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android-optimize.txt') in android/build.gradle.
proguard-android.txt is no longer supported in AGP 9+ since it includes -dontoptimize, which prevents R8 from performing optimizations. This causes a build failure for projects using Android Gradle Plugin 9.x.
