Downstream issues:

On Android 7.0.1 and 8.1, our users are getting the following error on startup:

SDL Error

An error occurred while trying to start the application. Please try again and/or reinstall.

Error: dlopen failed: cannot locate symbol "iconv_open" referenced by "/data/app/.../lib/arm64/libSDL3.so"...

It works fine on newer devices, like those with Android 11 and 13.

SDL3 docs says it supports Android 5.0 and up, so it should not error out like this on older devices.
