Need to improve build instructions #231

Having built FreeDCam a few years ago I wanted to build it again to install on my phone.
I cloned from github, opened in Android studio and had great problems building.
My mistake: didn't notice I had to separately clone the renderscript stuff. Maybe a note in build instructions would help.
Then I had probems with gradle version and sdk versions.
what eventually got things going was to use
compileSDK = 31
targetSDK = 31
minSDKversion = 16 ( can't be less than renderscript version)
buildtoolsversion 31.0.0
distributionUrl=https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-7.3.3-bin.zip
com.android.tools.build:gradle:7.2.1

NB later versions of gradle don't work.
There is a need to make sure that SDK and gradle versions in renderscript match versions in FreeDCam.

thx for the note. im sorry for that and the time you spend.
2years ago it was "uptodate"^^
yes you have to update in both locations to the min sdk required.
the latest release here and on fdroid is uptodate with the source.
