Create MASTG-KNOW file about Android DataStore

[jacobocasado]

Android's DataStore is the recommended alternative to SharedPreferences (see SharedPreferences documentation).

Right now, there is a PR that adds a new test to verify that sensitive data is not stored via DataStore (https://github.com/OWASP/mastg/pull/3540/changes) but lacks of a KNOW file of the DataStore.

Adding a new KNOW file for this API would be great so that the TEST and related files can reference them for more information.

Hi @jacobocasado! I'd love to work on this. I'll look at the existing KNOW files for structure and draft a MASTG-KNOW file covering Android DataStore what it is, both Preferences and Proto flavors, security considerations, and relevant code examples. Will also make sure it aligns with the test in PR #3540. Let me know if there's anything specific you'd like included!
