🎯 What:
Replaced e.printStackTrace() with Log.e(TAG, "Failed to parse touch layout data", e) in TouchControlManager.loadLayout(). Added the necessary import android.util.Log and defined TAG inside the TouchControlManager object.

💡 Why:
Calling e.printStackTrace() is considered a suboptimal practice in Android development because it writes to standard error stream (System.err), which can be harder to filter and monitor in Logcat compared to using the standard Android Log utility with proper severity levels and tags. This change improves log discoverability and codebase maintainability.

Verification:
I verified the change by manually checking the modified file using cat and running automated code review, which passed cleanly. Building tests revealed an expected dependency initialization problem unrelated to this logic, but the actual change consists solely of replacing one logging method with another equivalent, safe one that properly retains exception context.

Result:
Exceptions during touch layout parsing are now appropriately categorized in standard Android logs, improving runtime telemetry and debugging.
