Actually, i did NOT solve the problem by now, but made a little step forward.
The error occurs in node_modules\cordova-android\lib\prepare.js in the method: updateProjectSplashScreen(...), because var splashScreenTheme is null, because theme (= style[@name="Theme.App.SplashScreen"]) is not found or var themeTargetNode is null, because theme item is not found.
I added the theme manually in themes.xml in platforms/android/app/src/main/res/values dir with the following content:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<resources>
<style name="Theme.App.SplashScreen" parent="@android:style/Theme.DeviceDefault.NoActionBar">
<item name="android:windowBackground">@android:color/white</item>
<item name="windowSplashScreenBackground">@color/cdv_splashscreen_background</item>
<item name="windowSplashScreenAnimationDuration">200</item>
<item name="postSplashScreenTheme">@style/Theme.AppCompat.NoActionBar</item>
</style>
</resources>
This solved the error during build, but the app crashes on splash screen, if it is started. I think i misconfigured the theme. I hope anyone here can correct the themes.xml file.
P.S.: Same problem was posted in ionic forum: https://forum.ionicframework.com/t/ionic-android-12-splash-error-while-adding-cordova-android-11/225896.
