Custom paths not supported for creating an android automotive virtual device

Qt creator seems to have the path for the Android Automotive system image hard-coded as using custom paths seems to not work. They work when creating a virtual device from the Android Studio's virtual device manager.

Steps to reproduce

Get an Android Automotive image (As an example, I'm using an x86_64 android 13 image). Store the image at <Path to SDK>/system-images/android-33/qtaa_emulator/x86_64. In <Path to SDK>/system-images/android-33/qtaa_emulator/x86_64/package.xml change the tag <localPackage path="system-images;android-33;qtaa_emulator;x86_64" obsolete="false">.

Now go to device creation in Qt Creator from Edit > Preferences > Devices > Add > Android Device. In Device definition, choose Automotive, and in Architecture (ABI), choose x86_64.

Expected Behavior

The Target API field should list the new android-33 image.

Observer Behavior

The Target API field does not show the new android-33 image

Workaround

Place the system image in this path instead - <Path to SDK>/system-images/android-33/android-automotive/x86_64. Also, in <Path to SDK>/system-images/android-33/android-automotive/x86_64/package.xml change the tag <localPackage path="system-images;android-33;android-automotive;x86_64" obsolete="false">.
