Switch to benchmark test runner

Macrobenchmark now prompts to use this, so samples should probably follow the advice.
androidx.benchmark.junit4.AndroidBenchmarkRunner

Macrobench shouldn't prompt to use this, this was a bug where it shared micro warnings, should be fixed in next alpha. Fixed in https://android-review.git.corp.google.com/c/platform/frameworks/support/+/2617495
Is it a bad idea to use this runner? I changed another project already.
It's only needed for microbenchmarks, but it's set automatically by the androidx.benchmark gradle plugin. The warning shouldn't show up for macrobenchmarks - and actually, I didn't ever see it for macro in internal AndroidX builds, not sure why not though.
In my case I have some macrobenchmark run with a service (media session), so I suspect my case is still valid.
