Bump dependencies versions and add their respective KTX variants #324

Outdated libs Project is using a bit outdated libs (for example androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-viewmodel:2.0.0 when 2.2.0-rc03 is available). They should be kept up-to-date so we'll receive newest featues and fixes.

KTX Furthermore, considering that all of our code is written in Kotlin, we should take advantage of ktx versions of those libs. That will enable us to write better, more idiomatic Kotlin code.

Resources

https://developer.android.com/kotlin/ktx#use-ktx official docs on Android KTX and its advantages https://androidx.tech might serve as a good reference for versions of AndroidX libraries.
