* Fix explicitly set buildSrc root project name to avoid breaking the cache

Project accessors enabled, but root project name not explicitly set for
'buildSrc'. Checking out the project in different folders will impact
the generated code and implicitly the buildscript classpath, breaking
caching.

* Early checkout submodules, in order to include them in the cache

* Apply recursive submodule checkout to all jobs

* Enable gradle cache

* Move from gradle/gradle-build-action to newer gradle/actions/setup-gradle

* Reverse licence-compliance job order again to make ci happy

* No gradle cache for licence check

* Disable actions/setup-java@v4 gradle cache, in favor of gradle/actions/setup-gradle

* Aggregate metrics for spans

* Add manifest property

* Add metrics sample Activity

* Update Changelog

* Minor cleanup

* Update sentry-android-core/src/test/java/io/sentry/android/core/ManifestMetadataReaderTest.kt
