CI: Replace the setup-gradle action with setup-android

The setup-android action takes care of making sure that the Android SDK
is installed in the desired version, and let the gradlew wrappers fetch
Gradle as-needed (which is the recommended anyway). This makes workflows
work with Act [1], allowing running and debugging them locally.
