Flutter-geolocator: AndroidX Support

[ebastuart]

AndroidX Support

Google has updates all their flutter dependencies, what causes to migrate to AndroidX libs.
Unfortunately this plugin crashes after migration.

Platform:

• [ ] :iphone: iOS
• [x] :robot: Android

Please update this package to AndroidX, we love it, app not able to generate release APK

Do you have any plans to upgrade libraries to support android-X? I could not build the release version. Thanks.

I just ended up going through the plugin-related code and replacing all instances of "android.support.v4" with "androidx.core" as a temporary measure.

[mikron123]

Is this going to be fixed?

@puravsanghani : sounds good. Could you be more specific how to do it in Android Studio and which files are concerned (if it's installed via dependency)?

I am waiting for this to be fixed for my final build. Currently Android built fails with the err
