This is done manually in the CI, since we can't do it directly in either the SDK using cargo or in the Android project using gradle.
These debug symbols are uploaded to Sentry and allow symbolicating the backtraces from the SDK as needed.
Not having these debug symbols reduce the
.sofile size by ~50MB when uncompressed, making the final APKs using these a lot smaller, specially the universal ones.Also, we can now publish snapshots versions, which made testing this so much easier and can be helpful in the future.
Needs matrix-org/matrix-rust-sdk#6101 to work properly.
