Media Storage `com.google.android.providers.media.module

https://github.com/MuntashirAkon/android-debloat-list/blob/f9cdddeb6770e10f735592ddf358bd89b0f86c94/pending.json#L264

  1. Marked as unsafe but description says safe to remove...
  2. The description is confusing, if it's only A11 affected or later versions also. Checked in my A12 device everything crashing if disabled & you can't access/storage/emulated/0. I'd suggest to remove. ~In Android 11 this is literally what~ provides access to files.
  3. Move this package to google.json. Change label to Media Storage. Separate web link.

pending.json hasn't been documented yet. I've only added a few labels so far.
