Session Replay: Recording on Android

[bruno-garcia]

Recording and redaction works fine on MAUI because it's all native under the hood.
To complete this we need to get breadcrumbs from C#, trace/replay id to the C# layer and other features.

I'd love to test this out on Symbol Collector. How about we make a -alpha with this, so I can add it there?

it'll run on hundreds of devices.

You mean make a release from this branch? We could definitely do that... just mark it -replayAndroid1 or something like that so it's clear on nuget.org that it's an experimental/prerelease.

LGTM as an early alfa

In the future, we should probably have a facade that configures options for the current platform (Android/iOS), instead of letting the user specify them multiple times.

If the options had the same name for both iOS and Android (OnErrorSampleRate, SessionSampleRate etc.) then presumably SDK users could write something like this, even without any facade:

#if ANDROID || IOS
                options.Native.ExperimentalOptions.SessionReplay.OnErrorSampleRate = 1.0;
                options.Native.ExperimentalOptions.SessionReplay.SessionSampleRate = 1.0;
                options.Native.ExperimentalOptions.SessionReplay.RedactAllImages = false;
                options.Native.ExperimentalOptions.SessionReplay.RedactAllText = false;
#endif

When targeting android, options.Native would resolve to the appropriate platform specific options at build no?

cc @bricefriha something we'd like to push through once the open issues are under control

would love to try this too on Symbol Collector. cc @jamescrosswell

Is there anything blocking that? Can't we just make a pre-release from this branch? Or is it more about having someone integrated it into the Symbol Collector?

Other than CI being red, nothing blocking this

woo it's green! THanks @jamescrosswell

can we merge this in? (it's an experimental feature so not too worried about lack of docs for example)
