Android build error: Could not get unknown property 'configurationFilePath' for extension 'datadog' of type com.datadog.gradle.plugin.DdExtension

[lukasz-app]

Describe the issue

I added DataDog SDK to the project, and we're using the datadog-configuration.json file as sepecified in the docs:
https://docs.datadoghq.com/real_user_monitoring/guide/initialize-your-native-sdk-before-react-native-starts/?tab=android

This works fine.
The top of our android/app/gradle/build file looks like:

apply plugin: "com.android.application"
apply plugin: "org.jetbrains.kotlin.android"
apply plugin: "com.facebook.react"

apply from: project(':react-native-config').projectDir.getPath() + "/dotenv.gradle"

apply from: "../../node_modules/@datadog/mobile-react-native/datadog-configuration.gradle"
....

The issue starts when I try to add deobfuscation of stack traces to our android gradle file, as mentioned here:
https://docs.datadoghq.com/real_user_monitoring/mobile_and_tv_monitoring/react_native/error_tracking/#get-deobfuscated-stack-traces

I add additional lines to the android/app/gradle/build file, so it looks like this:

plugins {
    id("com.datadoghq.dd-sdk-android-gradle-plugin") version "1.16.0"
}

apply plugin: "com.android.application"
apply plugin: "org.jetbrains.kotlin.android"
apply plugin: "com.facebook.react"

apply from: project(':react-native-config').projectDir.getPath() + "/dotenv.gradle"

apply from: "../../node_modules/@datadog/mobile-react-native/datadog-sourcemaps.gradle"
apply from: "../../node_modules/@datadog/mobile-react-native/datadog-configuration.gradle"

This results in build error:
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

• Where:
  Script 'my_app/node_modules/@datadog/mobile-react-native/datadog-configuration.gradle' line: 9
• What went wrong:
  A problem occurred evaluating script.

Could not get unknown property 'configurationFilePath' for extension 'datadog' of type com.datadog.gradle.plugin.DdExtension.

Reproduction steps

1. Add datadog react native SDK to the project
2. Use datadog-configuration.json file for initialization
3. Add those lines to the android/app/build.gradle file

plugins {
    id("com.datadoghq.dd-sdk-android-gradle-plugin") version "1.16.0"
}
apply from: "../../node_modules/@datadog/mobile-react-native/datadog-sourcemaps.gradle"

4. Build error: Could not get unknown property 'configurationFilePath' for extension 'datadog' of type com.datadog.gradle.plugin.DdExtension.
