Remove usage of -ktx dependencies

[ChristianKatzmann]

Per https://firebase.google.com/docs/android/kotlin-migration

This change means that Kotlin developers can now depend on the main modules instead of the KTX modules (when using Firebase BoM v32.5.0+ or main module versions listed in BoM v32.5.0+).

As this project uses Firebase BoM 33.10.0 this is a safe change.

Resolves #676.

@nbransby This is getting urgent, the -ktx dependencies are not maintained anymore.

Latest Common: https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.google.firebase/firebase-common/22.0.0
Latest KTX Common: https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.google.firebase/firebase-common-ktx/21.0.0

[cuub]

PR Status

I don't think this pull request will get merged soon (if ever).

Even if it would, it will take a couple more weeks (or months, or years?) until it get's released.
The project is too outdated for a simple publish and the maintainer does not invest time into this anymore.

Fork

So I took this thing into my own hands, forked it updated it and applied multiple pending pull requests.

Take a look at the README to see more information.

The packages are available under the same name and version, just the group changed from dev.gitlive to dev.datlag.firebase

Expect some minor breaking changes (nothing crazy, just imports if you work with platform depending native bindings)
These were mandatory in order to update the project properly.

Ignore the following pings, but since a lot of people are waiting for this, I am making sure everyone sees this.

@nbransby Thanks for approving this PR and enabling auto-merge. 👍 Unfortunately, some checks seems to hung. Is it somewhat expected for those ios checks to take so long?
