Describe the error

WorkManager does not provide a PrivacyManifest. This is required as of May 1st 2024, as indicated by Apple: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/bundleresources/privacy_manifest_files/describing_use_of_required_reason_api

The UserDefaults API needs a Required Reason set up in the manifest.

You can implement the privacy manifest to your own Main-Runner App. AppStore does not report an issue if correct implemented.

The Sample App should not be uploaded to the AppStore.

I noticed that Apple only reports warnings for your own app's Runner. However, their documentation clearly states that third-party SDKs should provide a Privacy Manifest. To comply with the latter, for the Required Reason API rules, I added said manifest to workmanager in the linked PR (not to the example app, since that is irrelevant for App Store submissions)
