Subject: [PATCH] Add setup-gradle to ad-hoc builds and force native build
 option

Cache Gradle dependencies in the androidHybrid job to reduce build time
variance caused by repeated Maven dependency resolution (~11 min avg).

Also add a FORCE_NATIVE_BUILD checkbox to testBuild.yml that bypasses the
Rock remote cache by injecting a unique run ID into the native fingerprint,
forcing a full native build on both Android and iOS.
