Android AppCompat Beta 1.4.0-beta01 Release Breaks Builds

[AdlerJS]

The following line <framework src="androidx.appcompat:appcompat:+" /> in the plugin.xml file is now breaking Android Builds for SDKCompile versions less than 31 which is what I imagine all Capacitor projects are running with.

With the release of the new 1.4.0-beta01 : https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/appcompat which happened yesterday all builds using this plugin with SDK less than 31 will now break.

I would recommended instead of using + we just lock the version to 1.3.1 as this is the most recent stable version per the site. Let me know your thoughts and I can open a PR if need be. I've fixed it in our build pipeline for now by hacking around it but wouldn't mind solving it at the core for others using the plugin / having the same issue.

Thanks for the great plugin!
