chore(release): 8.0.0 [skip ci]

# [8.0.0](v7.1.6...v8.0.0) (2025-12-08)

### Bug Fixes

* **android:** use 'propName = value' assignment syntax in build.gradle files ([08f311a](08f311a))
* **ios:** added timeout implementation for both getCurrentPosition and watchPosition ([#55](#55)) ([4c22ac3](4c22ac3))
* peerDependency for pnpm compatibility ([a94839d](a94839d))

### Features

* **android:** Fallback option for no network or Play Services ([#53](#53)) ([09277b7](09277b7))
* **android:** New parameter `interval` in `watchPosition` ([#62](#62)) ([7fda0cf](7fda0cf))
* Capacitor 8 support ([6ead26a](6ead26a))

### BREAKING CHANGES

* **android:** The `timeout` property now gets applied to all requests on Android on iOS, as opposed to just web and `getCurrentPosition` on Android. This aligns with what is documented in the plugin. If you are experiencing timeouts when requesting location in your app, consider using a higher `timeout` value. For `watchPosition` on Android, you may use the `interval` parameter introduced in version 8.0.0.
* Capacitor major version update requires major version update on the plugin.
