ExceptionInInitializerError on the last version 1.3.0 for Android

[Pschsch]

While trying to register Tink, app crashes at KeysetHandle.generateNew(AeadKeyTemplates.AES256_GCM) Same result in another key templates.

Could you please provide the full stack trace? There's a known issue with protobuf. If you also depend on for example Firebase, there's a protobuf dependency conflict.

@thaidn So we're running into an exception in initializing that came up in 1.3.0 in our CI that uses Firebase Test Lab. For a while, we didn't seem to run into this stack trace. But recently, we also included https://github.com/aws/amazon-chime-sdk-android which seems to use according to their THIRD-PARTY.txt

protobuf; version 3.5.1 -- https://github.com/google/protobuf

This is a known issue. We're working on a fix. It should be available in HEAD-SNAPSHOT next week and included in 1.4.0-RC2.

This is a dup of #301. Let's move the discussion over there.
