Studio Build: Version of Gradle Plugin: 4.0.0 Version of Gradle: 6.2 Version of Java: 1.8.0_242-release OS: macOS Mojave 10.14.6

Looks like after building the .apk in any flavor the output.json file shows a wrong versionName and ignores whatever is specified in the build.gradle of the app module.

Example:

    defaultConfig {
        versionCode 1212121212
        versionName "test"
    }

then you go to the build folder and you see the output.json file containing this:

{
  "version": 1,
  "artifactType": {
    "type": "APK",
    "kind": "Directory"
  },
  "applicationId": "com.example",
  "variantName": "release",
  "elements": [
    {
      "type": "SINGLE",
      "filters": [],
      "properties": [],
      "versionCode": 1212121212,
      "versionName": "1212121212",
      "enabled": true,
      "outputFile": "app-release-unsigned.apk"
    }
  ]
}

Looks like it's ignoring whatever is entered in versionName and it's outputting versionCode as a string (surrounded by quotes) instead.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Modify app/build.gradle and set any value in versionName
2. Build using for example ./gradlew assemble
3. Go to the build folder app/build/outputs/apk/debug/output.json and verify the versionName is wrong and it's using the versionCode as a string

The problem seems to be only in output.json, since the .apk itself has a proper versionName value when inspected with APK analyzer.
