Kotlin version errors

[Voklen]

Describe the bug
Flutter throws errors when building a project with this plugin, interestingly it still builds the apk even though the errors are thrown.

To Reproduce

flutter create flutter_test_app
cd flutter_test_app
flutter pub add shared_storage
# Change Kotlin version in android/build.gradle to 1.8.10 (or 1.8.0 or 1.9.0, the same thing happens)
flutter build apk

Expected behavior
No build errors

Actual behavior

Does the built apk works when running in a real/emulated device?

Also, seems your project is using gradle 1.6.0 and this project is using gradle 1.8.0, see if #141 works for you.

Make sure gradle cache is clear before building when gradle version is set to 1.8: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/75260986/the-binary-version-of-its-metadata-is-1-8-0-expected-version-is-1-6-0

Now it works perfectly, I can't believe I saw the first line with the

e: /home/sasha/programming/flutter/flutter_test_app/build/shared_storage/...

but not the next which pointed to the problem being the gradle cache

e: /home/sasha/.gradle/caches/...

Anyway, thank you for the quick response, I love the project and it's been essential in making Daily Diary
