Update build.sh to use cmdline tools.

[Gryzor]

Objective

• Fix the simple out of the box experience when cloning TalkBack and then running "./build.sh" on any recent version of Android Tools/Android Studio.

Description

• The sdkmanager located in {ANDROID_SDK}"/tools/bin/ contains an old-unmaintained version of the sdk manager that doesn't work with the version of JAVA shipped in modern Android Studio versions.
• The "new" more updated sdkmanager is located in {ANDROID_SDK}"/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/sdkmanager.
• It is expected that new Android Devs who have not downloaded this Optional dependency, can do so with one click (and they can, by using the SDK Manager included in their Android Studio. This is better than a cryptic error message like Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/xml/bind/annotation/XmlSchema when running a build script.

It's unfortunate, but according to this comment TalkBack is not being developed openly and does not [officially - highlight mine] accept pull requests.

For the most current open-source fork of TalkBack, you can check out TalkBack FOSS.

Sad.

Thanks for sharing. Closing this PR then. If they'd only include TalkBack in emulators we wouldn't need to compile an APK 😮‍💨

@Gryzor You're right.

talkback-foss doesn't have a perspective unless an experienced developer joins. No visible and usable changes except updates of build environment which doesn't matter for user.

@beqabeqa473 you're right, too, at least partially...
