Previously (as stated in the docs), using Android Gradle Plugin 7.1.3 would allow project files to use classes from Identity, Lifecycle, and Signal directly. After upgrading to Android Gradle Plugin 7.2.0, those dependencies now have to be added directly for Android studio to see them.
Interestingly, building the project from the command line still works just fine, so this is purely an IDE issue.
