to build separate APKs for each architecture, so that each APK only contains the binaries required

+ \section1 Known Issues
+
+ Due to a bug on some devices, when you turn off predictive text with \c ImhNoPredictiveText,
+ this property will be ignored and predictive text will still be enabled. To work around this,
+ set the \c QT_ANDROID_ENABLE_WORKAROUND_TO_DISABLE_PREDICTIVE_TEXT environment variable to \c 1.
+ However, one side effect is that this environment variable can cause a problem with other
+ keyboards such as Gboard. If you use a language like Japanese, with Gboard, only a QWERTY
+ keyboard is displayed. This environment variable is queried each time the keyboard is displayed,
+ so it's possible to toggle the workaround on and off, as necessary.
