Add meta-data support inside Android receiver components

[PrestaEdit]

Problem

The buildReceiverEntry() method did not support meta-data elements inside receiver components, unlike buildServiceEntry() which already calls buildComponentMetaData().

This made it impossible to register an Android AppWidgetProvider via a plugin's nativephp.json, because Android requires a <meta-data android:name="android.appwidget.provider" android:resource="@xml/..."/> element inside the <receiver> block to recognize it as a widget provider and display it in the widget picker.

Without this, the receiver is registered (intent-filter is present) but Android silently ignores it as a widget provider — the widget never appears in the picker.

Solution

Apply the same pattern already used in buildServiceEntry(): read meta_data/meta-data from the receiver config and pass it to the existing buildComponentMetaData() method (which already handles both value and resource attributes).

Usage example

nativephp.json in a plugin:

{
    "android": {
        "receivers": [
            {
                "name": "com.example.myplugin.MyWidgetProvider",
                "exported": true,
                "intent-filters": [
                    { "action": "android.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_UPDATE" }
                ],
                "meta-data": [
                    {
                        "name": "android.appwidget.provider",
                        "resource": "@xml/my_widget_info"
                    }
                ]
            }
        ]
    }
}

Produces:

<receiver
    android:name="com.example.myplugin.MyWidgetProvider"
    android:exported="true">
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_UPDATE" />
    </intent-filter>
    <meta-data android:name="android.appwidget.provider" android:resource="@xml/my_widget_info" />
</receiver>

Test plan

• it_adds_meta_data_with_resource_inside_receiver — resource attribute (AppWidgetProvider use-case)
• it_adds_meta_data_with_value_inside_receiver — value attribute
• it_supports_both_intent_filters_and_meta_data_in_receiver — combined intent-filter + meta-data
• it_keeps_receiver_self_closing_without_nested_content — no regression on receivers without nested content
