Summary

clerk-android 1.2.0 can't be used in apps that build with Android Gradle plugin 8, which includes every React Native and Expo app. Bumping @clerk/expo-native-components to 1.2.0 fails all three Android jobs at :app:checkReleaseAarMetadata (clerk/javascript#10247):

• clerk-android-api:1.2.0, clerk-android-ui:1.2.0 and clerk-android-telemetry:1.1.0 require apps to compile against API 37. The Expo app compiles against 36 with AGP 8.11.0, whose highest supported compileSdk is 36.
• androidx.lifecycle:*:2.11.0 requires compileSdk 37 and AGP 9.1.0 or higher.

Both floors come from #1077, which moved lifecycle to 2.11.0 and raised compileSdk to 37 to build it.

Changes

• lifecycle goes back to 2.10.0 and compileSdk back to 36. fix(deps): update dependency androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-viewmodel-navigation3 to v2.11.0 #1077 also put every lifecycle artifact on one version ref and gave apps a separate targetSdk; both stay.
• navigationCompose goes from 2.10.2 to 2.9.8. navigation-compose 2.10.x also needs compileSdk 37 and pulls in lifecycle 2.11, so the two samples that use it (linear-clone, prebuilt-ui) wouldn't build against 36. Only the samples depend on it; it isn't in the published libraries.
• renovate.json holds androidx.lifecycle:** below 2.11.0 and navigation-compose below 2.10.0, so Renovate doesn't reopen these bumps.

After this merges, release 1.2.1. It re-publishes telemetry too. Then point clerk/javascript#10247 at 1.2.1.

Verification

• Locally, assembleDebug (every module), unit tests for api, ui and telemetry, apiCheck, and lint on the three libraries all pass. :e2e passes checkDebugAarMetadata against compileSdk 36, so the published dependency graph needs nothing above 36.
• releaseRuntimeClasspath for :source:ui resolves every lifecycle artifact to 2.10.0.
• Not yet run on an emulator. This PR only changes dependency versions, with no source changes, but it should still be checked with verify-clerk-android before release.
