Recurring dependency updates - #182

Prior to this change, the repository had no task to produce an automated dependency update report. This change adds the Ben Manes plugin so Gradle can report available dependency updates. No library versions changed in this setup commit. The report task and all four debug builds passed, and each APK cold-launched on the API 36 emulator.
Prior to this change, stable dependencies lagged behind compatible releases, while newer AndroidX versions exceeded the project's toolchain. This change updates AGP, Kotlin, Firebase, and WorkManager within the current SDK limits. KSP 2.3.12 needs AGP 8.12; newer AndroidX candidates need compileSdk 37 and AGP 9.1, so they remain unchanged. Protobuf stays untouched because no source or schema usage was found. All four debug variants built serially and cold-launched on API 36 without crashes.
Prior to this change, Google Play publishing used a plugin several releases behind the current stable 3.x line. This change updates the plugin within the existing major version and avoids the 4.x migration. Hilt 2.60.1 remains deferred because it needs AGP 9.0. All four debug variants built and cold-launched on API 36 without crashes.

🔵 Needs a closer look
Compatibility of the combined dependency upgrades with the existing build toolchain remains unverified and needs CI validation.
