Solutions

1. Call Builder.patchReporter() only once per Tinker.Builder instance; build the Tinker instance before setting it again.
2. Reuse the existing Builder instead of calling patchReporter() a second time.

When it happens

Trigger: Thrown at tinker-android/tinker-android-lib-no-op/src/main/java/com/tencent/tinker/lib/tinker/Tinker.java:349 when the library encounters an invalid state.

Common situations: Thrown from Tinker.Builder.patchReporter() when a PatchReporter was already assigned to the same Builder. Indicates duplicate builder configuration, typically from calling the builder method twice or sharing a Builder across setup code paths.
