Should VERSION_CODE be bumped for alpha releases?

Definitely needs to be bumped, each version name should have a unique corresponding version code so that we get accurate metrics.
I don't think we need to follow the rule for apps (where you can't install a lower version code package over a higher one), but maybe it's a good idea to follow it anyway and use something like 2070001?

2070001
Not sure what the format is here. Is the 0 between 2 and 7 just a delimiter?
For now, I would prefer to just bump to 3 if there isn't a pressing need to establish a format.

My reasoning was two digits per version number, i.e. "02.07.00.01" but without the dots and the leading zero... but I'm probably overengineering at this point, let's just bump it to 3 as you're saying.
This creates a new alpha version, GH tag/release to be done once this lands.
An alpha release is necessary to publish changes dependent on the alpha release of
androidx.browser.Publishing to maven will need to be done by a repo owner
