Build and run on Android 12 (API 31)

This is a documentation issue. Google Maps Navigation SDK version 7.0 for Android upgraded the minimum targetSdkVersion to 36.
See #481 and https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/navigation/android-sdk/release-notes#September_24_2025

The current documentation only states the minSdkVersion, which is still 23, but does not mention what the minimum targetSdkVersion is.
