+ * Version codes are quite sensitive, because there is a mix between bundle and APKs, and we have to take into
+ * account the future upgrade of Element Android.
+ * Max versionCode allowed by the PlayStore (for information):
+ * 2_100_000_000
+ * Current version code of EAx on the PlayStore, for the first uploaded beta (we cannot go below):
+ * ----1_001_000
+ * Current version code of EAx on the nightly:
+ * ----1_001_000
+ * Current version of Element Android (at some point EAx will replace this app) (v1.6.3)
+ * ----40_106_03a where a stands for the architecture: 1, 2, 3, 4 and 0 for the universal APK
+ * Current version of EAx distributed with Firebase app distribution:
+ * ----1_002_000
+ * Latest version of EAx distributed with Firebase app distribution (downgrading, so that's a problem)
+ * -------10_200
+ * Version when running the current debug build
+ * -------10_200
+ *
+ * So adding 4_000_000 to the current version Code computed here should be fine, we will have:
+ * Release version:
+ * ---40_001_020
+ * Nightly version:
+ * ---40_001_020
+ * Debug version:
+ * ---40_010_200
