External storage is no longer activated automatically

This issue was discovered when testing MCPE-176675(closet) and new report is MCPE-225990

Note:

  1. This needs to be fixed in all versions of Android as it previously worked in all versions.This probably doesn't happen issue on some devices but it does happen on the vast majority.

  2. Device used: Poco x6 pro (android 14)

Previously, when you granted storage permission from settings (from the device) and then opened minecraft for the first time, external storage was automatically selected.
