Update App Icon and Resolve Android Build Issues

[cfiguer055]

1. App Icon Changes

• 

• Updated the app icon in app.json.

• Removed the Android adaptive icon section to add a gradient background, as adaptive icons don't support gradients well. Unless you guys prefer a solid color for the bg.

• Using the global icon for both Android and iOS to simplify the setup.

  @Vaiterius:
  Can you run the iOS build in the testing branch and see if the app icon renders correctly on the device? I don't want to pay $100 for Apple Dev lol. Also maybe we should push ios/ build here like I did with android/. What do you think, @Persian-of-Interest ?

2. Resolved Android Build Issues

• There were issues with the Android icon cache keeping the old icon despite multiple changes to the icon and path.
• The expo prebuild and expo prebuild --clear commands also caused incorrect values in AndroidManifest.xml (package="com.arcs.smartclothingapp") and build.gradle (namespace "com.smartclothingapp"), which had to be manually fixed (I had to run this multiple times to get the icon to change).
• To avoid this, I customized the native Android code and removed android/ from .gitignore.
• I'm considering adding a script (bash, PowerShell, or build.gradle plugin) to automate fixing the Android build after clearing the cache for future developers.

3. HomeScreen Charts

• Uncommented the charts on the HomeScreen.
  Reference: Issue #109

4. Updated Dependencies

• Updated dependencies for metro and config.

5. Fix Persistent Auth and AsyncStorage Issues

• Resolved Firebase Auth persistence issue by configuring AsyncStorage for persistent login across app close and device restart.
• Moved Firestore setDoc to sign-up to ensure user documents are created even if the metrics modal is skipped.
• Ensured proper AsyncStorage management for UID and metrics, adding clearing on logout and account deletion.

Let me know if any adjustments are needed!

1. Added plugins/customNamespacePlugin script that deletes package from AndroidManifest and replaces namespace in build.gradle for post-install after running 'expo prebuild'.
2. Re-added android/ to .gitignore since plugin fixes prebuild issue. So we can continue to use expo-workflow instead of bare-workflow.
3. Changed display name for App from SmartClothingApp to SmartClothing.

Detailed Explanation of Solutions

I’ve addressed several issues related to Firebase Auth persistence and AsyncStorage management:

1. Firebase Auth Initialization with AsyncStorage
   Updated Firebase Auth to use AsyncStorage for persistence, ensuring the login state is retained even after closing the app or restarting the device. This prevents the auth state from resetting to memory persistence.

2. Fix for Firestore Document Creation
   Previously, the user document wasn’t being created if the metrics modal was skipped during sign-up. I moved the setDoc function from updateUserMetrics to startSignupWithEmail, ensuring the document is always created, even if the modal is skipped.

3. Improved AsyncStorage Management

   • The UID is now stored in AsyncStorage during both login and sign-up, ensuring consistency.
   • I added functions to clear UID and metrics data from AsyncStorage upon logout and account deletion to enhance security.

4. Persistent Login Across Sessions
   Solved the issue with persistent login by asynchronously loading fonts and checking the authentication state in parallel. This ensures proper sequencing and eliminates race conditions, allowing persistent state loading without blocking the UI.

For more details, refer to the related Issue #111.
