    manifest: Track custom prebuilts/misc revision AOSP added only the arm version of libprotobuf-cpp-{lite,full}-21.12 but some of our older vendor blobs also depend on the arm64 version. We can't fork prebuilts/misc due to its size, so do this trick to add the arm64 prebuilts of libprotobuf-cpp-{lite,full}-21.12 since we have no other way of overriding the build target or the repository.
