To resolve, change com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1 => com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.3.2, run flutter clean and try the build again.
According to the Gradle_release_note, the current (July 2019) version of the plugin and gradle are 3.4.2 and 5.1.1 respectively. I don't know if Flutter officially supports this version, although it seems to work on my project here and a clean build is markedly faster. The release notes cover some of the changes from 3.2.x => 3.3.x => 3.4.x.
To upgrade to the current version, edit android\gradle\wrapper\gradle-wrapper.properties to source Gradle 5.1.1, and then you're able to upgrade the Gradle plugin to 3.4.2.
Note that once gradle 5.1.1 is being used, you can still set the plugin version back to 3.2.1 to reproduce the issue.
