Cannot resolve method 'plant(timber.log.Timber.DebugTree)'

See original GitHub issue

Android Studio version: Android Studio Bumblebee | 2021.1.1 Patch 1 (Build #AI-211.7628.21.2111.8139111)
Timber version: com.jakewharton.timber:timber:5.0.1

Reproduction steps:

Simply add the above dependency to an Android project (ensuring to use Android Studio Bumblebee+)
Observe the Cannot resolve method 'plant(timber.log.Timber.DebugTree)' Lint error message:

Additional notes:

Didn’t seem to occur on prior version of Android Studio (Arctic Fox and prior).
Does seem to affect Android Studio Bumblebee (Stable), Chipmunk (Beta) and Dolphin (Canary).
Doesn’t appear to occur with pre-5.0.0 versions of Timber.
Loosely related to this issue.
Could be an Android Studio bug rather than a bug with Timber, though I figured best to report it here as it doesn’t seem to affect pre-5.0.0 versions of Timber as mentioned previously.
In case the issue is in fact with Android Studio, @gmk57 has reported it on Android Studio bug tracker.
