read android gradle plugin version from user project

Who have tested this commit? It breaks android build

@Dimon70007
My bad and I'm sorry. are you familiar with gradle build system? if yes, can you help me to make it works? I think it's a good idea if we can read gradle plugin version from the user project, just like the other options (e.g. compileSdkVersion). I already open an issue on react-native repository for this.

Can you post what's the error message you get on building android?

if no @zibs please revert my changes on this PR.

I get error when run any gradle task:

ERROR: Could not get unknown property '_ext' for object of type org.gradle.api.internal.artifacts.dsl.dependencies.DefaultDependencyHandler.

@SaeedZhiany, I am not sure, but you can try something like this - https://gist.github.com/Dimon70007/238a7a0371183c6ed4bea8a97bef6437

This build.gradle does not crash the build, but i did not tested it for what version it uses if i specify buildGradlePluginVersion in the rooProject

Today I got the same error with react-native run-android

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
