Since 889f435, Media3 uses the desugar_jdk_libs library to use newer Java APIs on older API levels.
For example in Format:

media/libraries/common/src/main/java/androidx/media3/common/Format.java

Line 982 in d833d59

|| (builder.labels.stream().anyMatch(l -> l.value.equals(builder.label))));

This means that applications/libraries using Media3 also need to integrate desugar_jdk_libs. However, this is not documented in the Java 8 support section of the Readme:
https://github.com/androidx/media/tree/release?tab=readme-ov-file#2-turn-on-java-8-support

Would it be possible to add a note about it?
