I think this is an issue in v2023.09.16

I had an operating script importing 'support-v4-24.1.1.aar' in v2023.05.21

After updating to v2023.09.16, the build would fail as the file could not be found.

One thing worth noting is that the paths in p4a for --add-aar have always been different from --add-jar. Meaning that if the files were in the same directory, --add-aar needed the full path while --add-jar used the relative path.

I have tried both path styles in v2023.09.16 and could not get a build to work. It does seem that the full path style is needed, however it fails on the gradle build.

On rollback to v2023.05.21 it is working again.
