note: python 3.9.x is now in source-only mode, so could not update to latest...
it is time to investigate upgrading to python 3.10 in the win and mac binaries
The google play store will require 31, starting 2022-11 (next month).
A few commits are cherry-picked onto our forks of p4a and buildozer
from upstream, but the forks are not rebased.
Note that the compileSdkVersion is kept at 30,
only the targetSdkVersion is bumped 30->31.

I am trying to upstream some relevant p4a and buildozer changes
in e.g. https://github.com/kivy/python-for-android/pull/2686
The current system python in the docker baseimage is py3.9, while the
targetpython and hostpython built by p4a are py3.8, and this was causing
linker issues in the pyqt5 build.
It is also cleaner IMHO to have p4a handle what is needed for a recipe
instead of assuming it is available in the system. (and I think this is
how other existing recipes work)
fixes https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/issues/8016
Change Docker base images from Ubuntu to Debian, and use `snapshot.debian.org` as apt source list.
Ubuntu occasionally removes version-pinned packages from apt (see #7484), which
- breaks historical reproducible builds
- introduces maintenance burden as we have to update the version pins
Hopefully this change fixes both issues.

Just uncomment line 53 in make_apk, and you get a testnet apk that can co-exist with your mainnet install.
No need to do a clean rebuild of ".buildozer/" either.
- note: "make theming" is kivy-specific, and not needed for the qml gui apk
- note: "make theming" does not run automatically as part of the build scripts,
although it used to in the past. For reproducible builds, the
"electrum/gui/kivy/theming/atlas" git submodule contains the build
artefacts. However, the user is supposed to manually run "make theming"
when changing the atlas/images.
This is bumping the python versions bundled inside our binaries.
For macOS and AppImage, from 3.9.10 to 3.9.11.
For Android, from 3.8.12 to 3.8.13.
Windows is left untouched as I am having issues with the wine build when using 3.9.11.
(see https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/pull/7721#issuecomment-1071901116 )
This is the new minimum the google play store requires.
note: the newer android command-line tools use a tiny bit different paths,
hence the `mv "${ANDROID_SDK_HOME}/cmdline-tools" "${ANDROID_SDK_HOME}/tools"` rename
see https://github.com/kivy/python-for-android/issues/2540
