Description
----------------
Please update okhttp dependency. The okhttp 2.7.2 that used it Places SDK (since v3.3.0) is outdated in 2016. The package is moved to another namespace (com.squareup.okhttp:okhttp => com.squareup.okhttp3:okhttp) and can't be automatically replaced by Gradle during a build. Adding Places SDK as a dependency enforces every project that using it to consume this outdated and vulnerable okhttp version.
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. add Places SDK to your project.
2. try to build
3. see com.squareup.okhttp:okhttp:2.7.2 is downloaded instead of 'com.squareup.okhttp3:okhttp:4.XX.XX'
Affected all versions of Places SDK since 3.3.0 until the most recent 4.12.0.
We are unable to update our Places SDK to 3+ or 4+ because of this issue.
