MBL-2619: upgrade to media3 exoplayer

[Arkariang]

📲 What

• Exoplayer update -> from exoplayer:2.17.1 to media3-exoplayer:1.7.1 (latest)
• Gradle 8.7.2 to 8.10
• ⚠️ do not merge until release candidate has been created!

🤔 Why

• We were still using quite a few deprecated items, on preparation of mobile visioning, where we likely will use media3 exoplayer compose style

🛠 How

📥 the interface for Player.Listener is marked with @unsableapi , but heads up is correct to use it, It's not deprecated or broken—it works now, but will likely have changes on following versions

object : Player.Listener {
                override fun onPlaybackStateChanged(playbackState: Int) {
                    if (playbackState == Player.STATE_READY) {
                        isPrepared = true
                        prepareMediaPlayer()
                    } else if (playbackState == Player.STATE_ENDED) {
                        resetPlayer()
                    }
                }

📋 QA

• Load some projects, play/pause video, test each button on the controls, go to full-screen, com back from full screen (back gesture on bottom/right of the screen).

Story 📖

MBL-2619

Good news here, seems there is no longer an option on the creator side of things to add other media to Project Story apart from images/gifs (or via URL) mp3 or mp4 formats are not allowed (attached screenshot of what I see trying to add that type of media file to the project). Meaning basically that we can potentially get rid of AudioElementViewHolder and VideoElementViewHolder

[Arkariang]

Forget about my previous comment! still need to support old projects despite apparently the new story editor does not support uploading mp3-mp4 media, here an project example -> https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/airlok/airlok-high-security-bike-storage-hanger-store-loc

Substituted for MediaItem.Builder()

hence using media3-exoplayer-hls no need to make any special configurations (will question though at some point if we use hls formats (project story video element high-quality))
