Build failure for Android release binary

[dannyMattr]

What happened?

When running the detox build command for the below detox configuration,
"android.release": { "type": "android.apk", "binaryPath": "android/app/build/outputs/apk/releaseE2E/app-releaseE2E.apk", "build": "cd android ; ./gradlew assembleReleaseE2E assembleAndroidTest -DtestBuildType=releaseE2E && cd .." }
build fails with the following message:
`> Task :app:processReleaseE2EAndroidTestResources FAILED

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

• What went wrong:
  Execution failed for task ':app:processReleaseE2EAndroidTestResources'.

A failure occurred while executing com.android.build.gradle.internal.res.LinkApplicationAndroidResourcesTask$TaskAction
Android resource linking failed
ERROR:: AAPT: error: resource style/Widget.AppCompat.TextView (aka global.mattr.mobile.verifier.test:style/Widget.AppCompat.TextView) not found.
error: resource style/Widget.AppCompat.TextView (aka global.mattr.mobile.verifier.test:style/Widget.AppCompat.TextView) not found.
error: failed linking references.`

I've managed to get over this issue by changing the build.gradle file from androidTestImplementation('com.wix:detox:+') to implementation('com.wix:detox:+'), but when attempting to run the binary built, it throws the following error:
detox[4773] ERROR: [EXEC_FAIL, #49] ""/Library/Android/sdk/platform-tools/adb" -s emulator-5554 shell "ps | grep \"global\.mattr\.mobile\.verifier$\""" failed with error = ChildProcessError: Command failed: "/Library/Android/sdk/platform-tools/adb" -s emulator-5554 shell "ps | grep \"global\.mattr\.mobile\.verifier$\""
The app is successfully installed on the emulator and can be opened manually fine afterwards. Also, running the failed command after opening the app once runs fine. It seems to be failing to launch the app for some reason.

Exactly the same project runs successfully for debug build and run with the following config:
"android.debug": { "type": "android.apk", "binaryPath": "android/app/build/outputs/apk/debug/app-debug.apk", "build": "cd android ; ./gradlew assembleDebug assembleAndroidTest -DtestBuildType=debug ; cd -" },

What was the expected behaviour?

builds and runs detox tests successfully for release variant as with debug variant

Was it tested on latest Detox?

• I have tested this issue on the latest Detox release and it still reproduces.

Did your test throw out a timeout?

• I have followed the instructions under Identifying which synchronization mechanism causes us to wait too much.

Help us reproduce this issue!

1. configure the android release build
2. run the build script (initial failure without my fix)
3. run the test script (execution failure as attached)

In what environment did this happen?

Detox version: 19.5.7
React Native version: 0.67.4
Node version: 16.14.2
Device model: Macbook Pro (2019) macOS: Monterey
Android version: 11 (emulator)
