Description

As mentioned in #3413 use 'net.danlew:android.joda:$jodatime_version' instead of "joda-time:joda-time:$jodatime_version" for performance improvements

First idea to make this work is wrapping the compile and version definition calls into if(hasProperty('target') && target == 'android') but I'm not sure if this is the best solution for this.

Maybe someone could point me in a better direction?

Research direction
The issue references #3413 and proposes using 'net.danlew:android.joda' for Android targets. Investigate the current build system (likely Gradle) in swagger codegen to understand how dependencies are managed for different targets. Look at build.gradle files, especially around the 'compile' and version definitions. Consider the suggested if(hasProperty('target') && target == 'android') approach or explore better alternatives. Check if the Android target is still supported and if the joda time android library is still maintained.
