Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
In order to be able to test e.g. #2463 for #2237, as well as to be able to work on #2232, it would be much easier, at least for me, if I didn't need to have a computer with the Android Studio with the Android SDK etc. set up. (I originally used to have it set up, but changed computers since.)

Describe the solution you'd like
A great solution for this are GitHub's Codespaces, based on Dev Containers.

Describe alternatives you've considered
There are none.

Would you like to work on the issue?
Yes, I'll explore how hard it would be to make at least a very basic initial version available.

Required (for me) for google/android-fhir#2481,

because https://github.com/NordcomInc/devcontainer-features installs the Android SDK into /usr/local/lib/android, not ~/Android.

… (#2482)

Intentionally does not install Gradle VSC extension after all (because it doesn't seem to work well).

Installs Java 17 instead of 11 in GitHub Codespace Dev Container so that the Gradle build works on CLI in Codespaces.

Uses akhildevelops instead of nordcominc to install Android SDK because that seems to work better.

Note that you'll need the akhildevelops/devcontainer-features#7 workaround.

Includes initial documentation describing Dev Containers for GitHub Codespaces support.
