The Google Play Store now requires apps to target at least SDK level 34 to be compliant with the latest "limitations and requirements". Set our default just as high so that apps can be published "out of the box".

This does imply that all apps built with xbuild's default target SDK level are supposed to be aware of the latest behaviour changes that they opt into when specifying targetSdkVersion=34: https://developer.android.com/about/versions/14/behavior-changes-14
Fortunately, almost none of these changes appear to affect the minimal API surface that is reachable by the NDK. Any app using them is likely written in Kotlin or Java and managed/compiled via gradle, without involving xbuild at all.
