Modernize build.gradle: Migrate to mavenCentral(), Upgrade Gradle Plugin and SDK Versions

[MarlonJerold]

Summary

This issue suggests updates to the build.gradle file to ensure compatibility with the latest Android Gradle plugin and repository changes.

Changes

1. Replace jcenter() with mavenCentral():

   • JCenter is being deprecated, so it's recommended to use Maven Central instead.

2. Update Gradle plugin version:

   • Update the Gradle plugin version to 4.1.0 to support the latest features and improvements.

3. Update compileSdkVersion:

   • Update compileSdkVersion to 30 to ensure compatibility with the latest Android SDK.
