add compatibility for Gradle 7.0.0+ on React Native 0.68.1

Hi! 👋

Firstly, thanks for your work on this project! 🙂

Today I used patch-package to patch [email protected] for the project I'm working on.

Here is the diff that solved my problem:

diff --git a/node_modules/react-native-orientation/android/build.gradle b/node_modules/react-native-orientation/android/build.gradle
index e09fb27..f5b1e04 100644
--- a/node_modules/react-native-orientation/android/build.gradle
+++ b/node_modules/react-native-orientation/android/build.gradle
@@ -16,5 +16,5 @@ android {
 }
 
 dependencies {
-    compile "com.facebook.react:react-native:+"
+    implementation "com.facebook.react:react-native:+"
 }

This issue body was partially generated by patch-package.

I am also facing same issue with Gradle 7.0.0+ on React Native 0.68. I am using react-native-orientation: 3.1.3. The above prescribed solution is working for me too. When will this change be published?
