I would agree with Julio that we should verify androidx support before we
finish the next major release. I don't expect we will have to make any
fixes on cordova-android for androidx support. Issues for reference:
* https://github.com/apache/cordova/issues/69
* https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/issues/565

I just raised WIP PR https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/pull/633 to
resolve bug 508. I hope to fix the tests within the next 1-2 days.

I think we should also try to resolve the following issues before the next
major release:
* https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/issues/629 - issue with Android
Studio 3.2 & 3.3
* https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/issues/623 - fix logging of
Java version (a PR was already proposed)

I think it would be nice but not absolutely necessary to resolve the
following issue as well:
* https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/issues/617 - support
ANDROID_SDK_ROOT in addition to ANDROID_HOME which is now deprecated
* https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/issues/634 - update Gradle
classpath for Android Studio 3.3
* review & merge the following PRs:
  - https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/pull/632 - ignore more Gradle
build artifacts in Android project
  - https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/pull/635 - ignore Android
Studio .idea files in Android project
