Android: Set minimum supported version to android-21

With the current distribution, this is 90% of active devices, and
it was released in 2014. Qt 5.12 is LTS and will continue to support
older Android versions for a long time to come.

This is to reduce the testing needed on outdated platforms and
allow ourselves to use some newer APIs unconditionally in Qt.
Android 21 was chosen because it is the minimum version that supports
64 bit builds.

[ChangeLog][Android] Increased the minimum supported Android version
to Android 5.0 (API level 21).

Fixes: QTBUG-70508
