fix(android): move MainActivity.java to folder that tracks the app package name (widget id)

[wedgberto]

Platforms affected

Android

Motivation and Context

Cordova has built in hook functionality that enables customisation of the build. My project has used this hook feature to change the package name via the build command line arguments so that the app can be built with the same code but different package names. e.g. io.cordova.helloworld can be installed and ran alongside io.cordova.helloworld2.

This is very useful for installing test, UAT or beta releases side by side. This was possible in [email protected] but was broken by changes made in 9.0.0.

When the package name of the project is changed in config.xml after a cordova build has completed, and before another build, the MainActivity.Java file is no longer moved to a folder that tracks the package name and ends up being removed.

This leads to an app crash when launched because the source code for a class that extends CordovaActivity no longer exists.

Subsequent build attempts of the project fail because the source code for a class that extends CordovaActivity is missing from the project.

Fixes #1139

Description

This PR reinstates code that took care of moving the Java source code file containing the class that extends CordovaActivity to a folder path that matches the app's package name (e.g. app/src/main/java/io/cordova/helloworld).

Testing

1. Create a new project and set its package name to io.cordova.helloworld
2. Build the project for Android (cordova build android)
3. Edit config.xml and set the package name to io.cordova.helloword2
4. Build the project for Android again (cordova build android)
5. The app will build but will crash when launched on an Android device because MainActivity is missing
6. Build the project for Android again (yes, a third time!) (cordova build android)
7. This time, the build fails with a compiler error (no class found that extends CordovaAcivity)

Hi @wedgberto

I would like to include this with our next 11.x release, but as this PR is old and didn't get much attention when it should have, it will need to be rebased. Do you think you'll have time in the upcoming weeks to rebase? If not, do I have permission to rebase/cherry-pick your commits to get these changes in?

Kind regards,
Norman

[wedgberto]

I'll rebase and check comments in the next few days Regards, David Wedgbury

Changes looks good, tested it locally and everything seems to work as expected + unit tests including your new unit tests passes.

I've just have one nit pick where you're using a package that isn't declared as a cordova-android dependency.

Thanks for your effort into preparing this PR.
