fix(android): remove MediaProjectionService from merged manifest

[diegolmello]

Proposed changes

Strips com.oney.WebRTCModule.MediaProjectionService from the merged Android manifest using tools:node="remove" to fix a Play Console crash warning on Android 15+.

react-native-webrtc declares MediaProjectionService with foregroundServiceType="mediaProjection" (screen sharing). expo-notifications merges a BOOT_COMPLETED receiver. Android 15+ (we target SDK 36) forbids starting restricted foreground service types from BOOT_COMPLETED receivers — Play static analysis flags this as a crash risk.

We don't use screen sharing (getDisplayMedia never called, enableMediaProjectionService never set), so the service is dead weight. Strip it.

Issue(s)

N/A — Play Console pre-launch report.

How to test or reproduce

1. ./gradlew :app:processDebugMainManifest
2. grep -i MediaProjection android/app/build/intermediates/merged_manifests/debug/processDebugMainManifest/AndroidManifest.xml → no matches

Walkthrough

Removes the MediaProjectionService from react-native-webrtc from the final Android build by explicitly adding a manifest merge directive (tools:node="remove") to the AndroidManifest.xml, preventing the foreground service from being packaged.
