Hi thank you for this awesome repository, it really helped me to implement ads on my applications !

However, when compiling my first application and exporting it to the Play Console, I noticed that the Google AdMob dependency caused the application crash on start because of a missing flag in the version specified in the buildozer.spec file.

This is the full error log obtained:

FATAL EXCEPTION: pool-3-thread-1
Process: lupadevstudio.com.postrias, PID: 21335
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: lupadevstudio.com.postrias: Targeting S+ (version 31 and above) requires that one of FLAG_IMMUTABLE or FLAG_MUTABLE be specified when creating a PendingIntent.
Strongly consider using FLAG_IMMUTABLE, only use FLAG_MUTABLE if some functionality depends on the PendingIntent being mutable, e.g. if it needs to be used with inline replies or bubbles.

After a few research on internet, I managed to solve the problem by changing the com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:20.3.0 dependency version to com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:22.5.0 in the buildozer.spec file.

I will propose a pull request with this fix.
