Current behavior:
Linting the android project in CI environment fails when using the facebook provider because of missing dependency.

$ ./gradlew app:lint

> Task :app:lintDebug FAILED
Lint found 2 errors, 42 warnings. First failure:

android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml:124: Error: Class referenced in the manifest, com.facebook.FacebookActivity, was not found in the project or the libraries [MissingClass]

Deprecated Gradle features were used in this build, making it incompatible with Gradle 8.0.

You can use '--warning-mode all' to show the individual deprecation warnings and determine if they come from your own scripts or plugins.

See https://docs.gradle.org/7.3.3/userguide/command_line_interface.html#sec:command_line_warnings

BUILD FAILED in 10s

Expected behavior:
./gradle app:lint should pass

Steps to reproduce:
Implement authentication with the facebook provider according to documentation and run ./gradle app:lint

Related code:

facebookLoginVersion = '14.0.0'

<activity android:name="com.facebook.FacebookActivity"

Other information:
The project builds and runs in Android Studio.

A workaround I have found is to add the dependency in my top level build.gradle
implementation "com.facebook.android:facebook-login:$facebookLoginVersion

My guess is that the linter doesn't like that the dependency is in a subpackage while FacebookActivity is used at the top level (in AndroidManifest.xml). One solution is to change the documentation to say that the dependency should be added manually.
