Adds the M8 plan to android/PLAN.md item 9. Nothing is built yet; this records the plan before code.

Console state as read on 2026-10-23: 7 of 11 setup tasks done, no build uploaded.
Decisions (org lead, 2026-10-23):
- Reuse the release keystore as Play's app-signing key, so Play installs and sideloaded APKs share one signature.
- CI publishes each v* tag to the internal track; promotion is by hand.
- demo.runicgateway.com on the Oxide rig is the review and beta site (website#222).
What Play needs that the app lacks: target API 36 (with an AGP bump), an AAB, and a Play Developer API upload step in release.yml using a PLAY_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_JSON secret. The first bundle is uploaded by hand.
Three open questions:
- The content rating declares reportable UGC, but the app has no report or block action.
- The data-safety notes rest on a "not collected" premise a reviewer may question.
- Play wants a foreground-service declaration for the dataSync push service.

docs(android): plan M8 — Google Play 243d719d1c

Records where the Play Console stands (7 of 11 setup tasks done), the
org lead's three decisions of 2026-10-23 (reuse the release keystore as
Play's app-signing key; CI publishes each v* tag to the internal track;
demo.runicgateway.com on the Oxide rig is the review and beta site,
website#222), what Play needs that the app lacks (target API 36, an AAB,
the upload step), the order of work, and three open questions (content
rating vs. no report/block, the data-safety premise, the dataSync push
service).
