What does this PR do?

The recently released v3.15.0 version of react-native-webview bumps its androidx.webkit dependency from 1.4.0 to 1.14.0. Since 1.14.0 requires Gradle Plugin 8.1.1 or higher, it ends up breaking compatibility with React Native below 72 and under for our SDK.

Kudos to @marco-saia-datadog for quickly figuring out the problem 👏

Motivation

We should maintain a stable version for react-native-dependency to keep older versions of RN working.
