feat(android): Add internal non-terminating envelope capture

 - Bump Native SDK from v0.15.3 to v0.15.4 ([#5793](https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-java/pull/5793))

-- The SDK is now compiled with Android Gradle Plugin 9.2.1 ([#5779](https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-java/pull/5779))
+- Add `InternalSentrySdk.captureEnvelopeNonTerminating` for hybrid SDKs (e.g. Flutter) so unhandled exceptions that don't terminate the process no longer end the session as `crashed`. ([#5795](https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-java/pull/5795))
