After upgrading to android build tools 26.0.2, the plugin no longer works. Here are the logs we see

[android] Starting Android emulator
<PATH_TO_ANDROID_HOME>android/tools/emulator -engine classic -ports 5784,5785 -report-console tcp:5853,max=60 -avd ci-22 -no-snapshot-load -no-snapshot-save -no-audio -no-window
PANIC: Missing emulator engine program for 'x86' CPU.
[android] Emulator did not appear to start; giving up
[android] Stopping Android emulator

After digging into things, we found that Android have moved things around with the recent build tools and now the emulator tools are found at "android/emulator/" instead of "android/tools/emulator"

So we changed the plugin code, in particular the AndroidEmulator class, to look for the emulator at the new path. Things started to improve a little, however now we get this....

emulator: ERROR: could not connect to server on TCP:5868: Operation timed out

The "-report-console" argument seems to be the problem. If this argument is left out the emulator starts ok, however the plugin can't interact with it and times out.

[android] Emulator did not appear to start; giving up
[android] Stopping Android emulator

Any ideas?
