[Bug] [Android] "Error -6 No network connection available" when connected to a wifi without internet

[ErwanLGZ29]

I am using an Redmi 10c android 12 smartphone that does not have a 4g connection. It is connected to a private wifi that doesn't have internet either and I try to make an http request on a route from a local server, the request does not work and returns an error -6, "No network connection available". The smartphone is connected to the server's wifi and the route is available.

I created a fork of this plugin by commenting the verification on 'isNetWorkAvailable' and I could communicate in http to my local server in wifi without any problem :

Same issue here when trying to communicate with smart home devices which have not internet...

Would you please propose an option for disabling this feature and create a PR?
e.g.

• programmatically by API,
• or descriptively by setting a cordova plugin preference (see "AndroidBlacklistSecureSocketProtocols" as an example here: https://github.com/silkimen/cordova-plugin-advanced-http/blob/master/plugin.xml#LL11C21-L11C58)

I would actually prefer second option but open for comments and discussion.
