Record why the Android NDK is required

Hiding the NDK and rebuilding showed the build fails without it, and the reason is not obvious from this repository: maplibre_gl pins ndkVersion 28.2.13676358 in its own build file, and AGP needs every module to agree on one NDK. The app has no native sources and no Dart FFI, so the declaration reads like dead configuration and invites exactly the deletion that was just tried. Costs about 2 GB of Android SDK. Notes the full toolchain disk budget in the README as well, since a warm Gradle cache plus build output pushes the total to roughly 14 GB. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
