Description
This PR enhances the AndroidFileDeleter implementation by adding structured error handling, detailed logging, and improved coroutine usage.
It ensures better visibility, safety, and maintainability for all file deletion operations across the app.
Key changes:

2.Introduced per-file deletion success/failure tracking.
3.Enhanced log messages with INFO/ERROR priorities.
4.Implemented summary logs showing number of successful deletions.
5.Ensured all operations run in dispatchers.io() context to avoid blocking the main thread.
6.Improved readability with clear filtering and early returns.
