Implement R8 shrinker

[PranavPurwar]

Looks all-in-all neat, but to me, having R8/ProGuard in Build Settings is a bad UI decision. I think it should be adjustable in ProGuard Manager instead.

I did this in a hurry, didn't really think of that.

To be honest, the whole build dialog is a bad UI decision. IMO, when the user clicks on "build settings" button, an activity should appear showing all possible toggles or modifications that can be made, and even shortcuts to take you to specific activities such as ProGuard settings.

You may ask, why I have chosen an activity? It is because the current UI has become so crowded, and future features will not fit there well. So, it's better to take a step ahead to solve this issue permanently. You may also ask, how would the activity look? In my opinion, I think it should look like AndroidManifest Manager screen.

in my opinion, "build settings" should stay the way it is offering unique and quick options to be adjusted, and not creating an activity full of options that already exist in their own sections,for advanced sections we have the drawer on the right, last position where you can add anything for advanced controls,without messing up the sketchware interface that everyone is used to.

@PranavPurwar Hello are you feeling good? I tested the last action and created a program, as you can see in the photo, it did not block a specific code. Can you explain a little about this feature, thanks?

[PranavPurwar]

[PranavPurwar]

@TheRemakerMan you downloaded the minApi21 variant, its only available on minApi26 variant due to NIO dependency of R8/D8
